Which dma_map_sg? swiotlb handling is implemented in the underlying
ops, dma-direct and dma-iommu specifically.

dma-direct just iterates over the entries and calls dma_direct_map_page,
which does a per-entry decision to bounce based on
is_swiotlb_force_bounce, dma_capable and dma_kmalloc_needs_bounce.
