See vb2_dc_get_contiguous_size() and its callers. I still remember
spending an entire work day on writing one email at the culmination of
this discussion:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-iommu/56409B6D.5090903@arm.com/
809eac54cdd6 was framed as an efficiency improvement because it
technically was one (and something I had wanted to implement anyway),
but it was also very much to save myself from any further email debates
or customer calls about "regressing" code ported from 32-bit platforms...
Robin.
