[PATCH v6 6/6] swiotlb: Reinstate page-alignment for mappings >= PAGE_SIZE

From: Will Deacon
Date: Fri Mar 08 2024 - 10:29:55 EST


For swiotlb allocations >= PAGE_SIZE, the slab search historically
adjusted the stride to avoid checking unaligned slots. This had the
side-effect of aligning large mapping requests to PAGE_SIZE, but that
was broken by 0eee5ae10256 ("swiotlb: fix slot alignment checks").

Since this alignment could be relied upon drivers, reinstate PAGE_SIZE
alignment for swiotlb mappings >= PAGE_SIZE.
