Oh ok I didn't understood you were referring to the request_ctx API
thanks.

I just pushed v9 with the requested changes done. Now we map DMA only
when needed and use local struct instead of kmalloc. kmalloc is only
used for blocks. For that GFP_ATOMIC is used. The ALLOCATES_MEMORY was
already set in the algo flags.

Hope I'm making good progress on this.
