I can totally believe that. I recall the driver had a similiar bug like
15 years ago. I think Nisheeth fixed it. Checks logs... Yep, commit
0d1bc9125890426b52c.

Anyway, even with the quirk, we can still have the last PRP just before
the page boundary from the "large" pool if the device supports MDTS 2MB
or more. What does this device report?
