[PATCH 1/1] swiotlb: Fix swiotlb_bounce() to do partial sync's correctly

In current code, swiotlb_bounce() may do partial sync's correctly in
some circumstances, but may incorrectly fail in other circumstances.
The failure cases require both of these to be true:

1) swiotlb_align_offset() returns a non-zero "offset" value
2) the tlb_addr of the partial sync area points into the first
"offset" bytes of the _second_ or subsequent swiotlb slot allocated
for the mapping

Code added in commit 868c9ddc182b ("swiotlb: add overflow checks
to swiotlb_bounce") attempts to WARN on the invalid case where
tlb_addr points into the first "offset" bytes of the _first_
allocated slot. But there's no way for swiotlb_bounce() to distinguish
the first slot from the second and subsequent slots, so the WARN
can be triggered incorrectly when #2 above is true.

Related, current code calculates an adjustment to the orig_addr stored
in the swiotlb slot. The adjustment compensates for the difference
in the tlb_addr used for the partial sync vs. the tlb_addr for the full
mapping. The adjustment is stored in the local variable tlb_offset.
But when #1 and #2 above are true, it's valid for this adjustment to
be negative. In such case the arithmetic to adjust orig_addr produces
the wrong result due to tlb_offset being declared as unsigned.

Fix these problems by removing the over-constraining validations added
in 868c9ddc182b. Change the declaration of tlb_offset to be signed
instead of unsigned so the adjustment arithmetic works correctly.

Tested with a test-only hack to how swiotlb_tbl_map_single() calls
swiotlb_bounce(). Instead of calling swiotlb_bounce() just once
for the entire mapped area, do a loop with each iteration doing
only a 128 byte partial sync until the entire mapped area is
sync'ed. Then with swiotlb=force on the kernel boot line, run a
variety of raw disk writes followed by read and verification of
all bytes of the written data. The storage device has DMA
min_align_mask set, and the writes are done with a variety of
original buffer memory address alignments and overall buffer
sizes. For many of the combinations, current code triggers the
WARN statements, or the data verification fails. With the fixes,
no WARNs occur and all verifications pass.

Fixes: 5f89468e2f06 ("swiotlb: manipulate orig_addr when tlb_addr has offset")
Fixes: 868c9ddc182b ("swiotlb: add overflow checks to swiotlb_bounce")

This patch is built against the 6.9-rc1 tree plus Petr Tesarik's
"swiotlb: extend buffer pre-padding to alloc_align_mask" patch
that's in-flight.
