We basically have two ways to generate the IOVA:

  - a linear translation for the direct mapping case or some dumb IOMMU
    drivers - in that case case there is a 1:1 mapping between input
    segments and output segments in DMA mapping
  - a non-trivial IOMMU where all aligned segments are merged into
    a single IOVA range

So I don't really see how the dma layer could help much with any
limitation beyond existing max size and dma boundary ones.
