Okay I just tried to get the same while rendering in Mesa and it doesn't happen.
It reaches the end of the address space, sets last_iova back to 0, and just continues.
So the MMU fault is somehow specific to what I'm doing. Interesting.

This does happen when rendering - it keeps dealing out iovas near the end of the
address space. But that seems harmless, though maybe causes some more MMU
flushes than necessary.
