To be specific I think it is this hunk in another patch that matches
the above:

@@ -682,11 +682,15 @@ static void nvme_free_prps(struct request *req)
 {
        struct nvme_iod *iod = blk_mq_rq_to_pdu(req);
        struct nvme_queue *nvmeq = req->mq_hctx->driver_data;
+       unsigned int attrs = 0;
        unsigned int i;
 
+       if (req->cmd_flags & REQ_MMIO)
+               attrs = DMA_ATTR_MMIO;
+
        for (i = 0; i < iod->nr_dma_vecs; i++)
-               dma_unmap_page(nvmeq->dev->dev, iod->dma_vecs[i].addr,
-                               iod->dma_vecs[i].len, rq_dma_dir(req));
+               dma_unmap_phys(nvmeq->dev->dev, iod->dma_vecs[i].addr,
+                               iod->dma_vecs[i].len, rq_dma_dir(req), attrs);


And it is functionally fine to split the series like this because
unmap_page is a nop around unmap_phys:

void dma_unmap_page_attrs(struct device *dev, dma_addr_t addr, size_t size,
                 enum dma_data_direction dir, unsigned long attrs)
{
        if (unlikely(attrs & DMA_ATTR_MMIO))
                return;

        dma_unmap_phys(dev, addr, size, dir, attrs);
}
EXPORT_SYMBOL(dma_unmap_page_attrs);
