I like the idea because these days we already rely on bounce buffering
for sub-page buffers in many iommu based cases for strict isolation
purposes, as well as most 64-bit machines that lack an iommu.

Does this work on all 32-bit architectures as well? I see that you added
swiotlb for ARM LPASE systems in 2019, but I don't know if that has any
additional requirements for the other 32-bit architectures that don't
select SWIOTLB today.
