Hmm.  Basically this is another fixlet for nvme on swiotlb, which
already drove adding the max_mapping size and the align_mask, and
it seems we still hadn't covered all corner cases properly.  So
I think it basically has been broken since day 1, but nvme on
swiotlb only started becoming "interesting" with the trusted
hypervisor schemes.
