Hi Jens,

We (Android team) would like to support storage controllers with a segment size
of 4 KiB in combination with a 16 KiB page size. Hence this patch series that
adds supports for DMA segments smaller than the page size. In addition a few
cleanup patches for the block layer are included. Please consider this patch
series for the kernel v6.2 merge window.

Thanks,

Bart.
