Yes, exactly. Sorry I shortened the name to the ambiguous "direct", but
I think we're on the same page now.

Back to this patch, I get that this uring_cmd path wouldn't be able to
use the more efficient coalesced mapping when the IOMMU is on, and
instead map each segment indiviually. I think that's still better than
the alternative, though.
