Hmm. The is_page_busy case is really a should not happen case.
What is the benefit of skipping the dma_free_coherent and leaking
memory here, vs letting KASAN and friends see the free and possibly
help with debugging? In other words, why is this not:
WARN_ON_ONCE(is_page_busy(page));
dma_free_coherent(pool->dev, pool->allocation, page->vaddr,
page->dma);
...

This doesn't look related to the rest, or am I missing something?
