HW has released the descriptor (set the COWN bit) and I just clear all
other bits here really. Yeah, I guess it won't hurt to make sure.

You mean store the mapped addresses? Yeah I can do that but I'll still
need to read the descriptor memory to verify it was released by HW.

Can it still happen if I check the return value of dma_set_mask_and_coherent()?

I don't. I use the counters provided by HW for that.

Sure, thanks.
