The same occured here but due to time constraints and hardware issues I
couldn't dig into this earlier.

Bisecting in the 6.15.y stable series led to commit c30ae60f41f9 which
was cherry-picked from ee62ce7a1d90 ("page_pool: Track DMA-mapped pages
and unmap them when destroying the pool").

The problem still exists in 6.17-rc2.
