Hmm. So this series is exactly the same as def8574308ed..2d55c16c0c54,
except for not having that last broken one.

Which is fine, but I'm a bit surprised. Why?

Because it's also missing the _real_ "dmapool: create/destroy cleanup"
patch, ie this one:

https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20230126215125.4069751-13-kbusch@xxxxxxxx/

and I realize you somehow corrupted it last time, but I did expect it
to show up (perhaps folded into another patch, but in _some_ form).

Anyway, I've pulled this, but I think the end result of all this
confusion was still a tad broken.
