I'm try to get that information from bug reporter, but I can't get it so
far.

If sg->offset > PAGE_SIZE is fine then most likely we have problem with
alignment. We use page_frag_alloc() in mt76usb for buffer allocation
in scheme like this

page_frag_alloc(max_payload);	// something like 14434
page_frag_alloc(1024);
page_frag_alloc(2048)
page_frag_alloc(2048)
page_frag_alloc(2048)
...

page_frag_alloc works smart and fast way internally by allocating
fragments just but changing internal offset:

        offset = nc->offset - fragsz;
        if (unlikely(offset < 0)) {
                page = virt_to_page(nc->va);
	.
	.
	.

        }

        nc->offset = offset;
	return nc->va + offset;

but unlike other allocators like kmalloc that make effort to provide
ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN buffers, it does not care about alignment. Above
scheme of allocation in mt76usb breaks it. 

Note hat issue is with dma_map_sg(), switching to dma_map_single()
by using urb->transfer_buffer instead of urb->sg make things work
on AMD IOMMU.
