So we probably somehow got a false positive.

For now I'like the reported to confirm that the dma_direct_unmap_page+0x92
backtrace really is in the swiotlb code (I can't think of anything else,
but I'd rather be sure).

Second it would be great to print what the contents of io_tlb_start
and io_tlb_end are, e.g. by doing a printk_once in is_swiotlb_buffer,
maybe that gives a clue why we are hitting the swiotlb code here.
