5.10 regression, many XHCI swiotlb buffer is full / DMAR: Device bounce map failed errors on thunderbolt connected XHCI controller

[Hans de Goede]

Hi All,

Not sure if this is a XHCI driver problem at all, but I needed to start
somewhere with reporting this so I went with:

scripts/get_maintainer.pl -f drivers/usb/host/xhci-pci.c

And added a Cc: linux-pci@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx as bonus.

I'm seeing the following errors and very slow network performance with
the USB NIC in a Lenovo Thunderbolt gen 2 dock.

Note that the USB NIC is connected to the XHCI controller which is
embedded inside the dock and is connected over thunderbolt!

So the errors are:

etc.

This happens as soon as I generate any serious amount of outgoing network traffic. E.g. rsyncing files
to another machine.
