This routine now deserves a little bit of commenting, now that it is
doing less obvious things. How about something like this:
/*
* Unmaps pages, except for PCI_P2PDMA pages, which were never mapped in the
* first place. Instead of unmapping PCI_P2PDMA entries, simply remove the
* SG_PCI_P2PDMA mark
*/
void dma_direct_unmap_sg(struct device *dev, struct scatterlist *sgl,
int nents, enum dma_data_direction dir, unsigned long attrs)
{

The same thing can be achieved with fewer lines and a bit more clarity.
Can we please do it like this instead:
for_each_sg(sgl, sg, nents, i) {
if (sg_is_pci_p2pdma(sg))
sg_unmark_pci_p2pdma(sg);
else
dma_direct_unmap_page(dev, sg->dma_address,
sg_dma_len(sg), dir, attrs);
}

Also here, a block comment for the function would be nice. How about
approximately this:
/*
* Maps each SG segment. Returns the number of entries mapped, or 0 upon
* failure. If any entry could not be mapped, then no entries are mapped.
*/
I'll stop complaining about the pre-existing return code conventions,
since by now you know what I was thinking of saying. :)

Is it worth putting this stuff on the stack--is there a noticeable
performance improvement from caching the state? Because if it's
invisible, then simplicity is better. I suspect you're right, and that
it *is* worth it, but it's good to know for real.

Is this a bug? If neither of those "if" branches fires (ret == 0), then
the code (probably unintentionally) falls through and continues on to
attempt to call dma_direct_map_page()--despite being a PCI_P2PDMA page!
See below for suggestions:

This is another case in which "continue" is misleading and not as good
as "else". Because unless I'm wrong above, you really only want to take
one path *or* the other.
Also, the "else if (ret)" can be simplified to just setting ret = 0
unconditionally.
Given all that, here's a suggested alternative, which is both shorter
and clearer, IMHO:
for_each_sg(sgl, sg, nents, i) {
if (is_pci_p2pdma_page(sg_page(sg))) {
ret = pci_p2pdma_map_segment(&p2pdma_state, dev, sg,
attrs);
if (ret < 0)
goto out_unmap;
else
ret = 0;
} else {
sg->dma_address = dma_direct_map_page(dev, sg_page(sg),
sg->offset, sg->length, dir, attrs);
if (sg->dma_address == DMA_MAPPING_ERROR)
goto out_unmap;
sg_dma_len(sg) = sg->length;
}
}
