[PATCH v3 03/13] iommu/dma: Force bouncing of the size is not cacheline-aligned

Similarly to the direct DMA, bounce small allocations as they may have
originated from a kmalloc() cache not safe for DMA. Unlike the direct
DMA, iommu_dma_map_sg() cannot call iommu_dma_map_sg_swiotlb() for all
non-coherent devices as this would break some cases where the iova is
expected to be contiguous (dmabuf). Instead, scan the scatterlist for
any small sizes and only go the swiotlb path if any element of the list
needs bouncing (note that iommu_dma_map_page() would still only bounce
those buffers which are not DMA-aligned).

To avoid scanning the scatterlist on the 'sync' operations, introduce a
SG_DMA_BOUNCED flag set during the iommu_dma_map_sg() call (suggested by
Robin Murphy).

Not entirely sure about this approach but here it is. And it needs
better testing.
