Userptr backing store with SWIOTBL active is currently allocated in the same
inefficient manner, with one sg entry per object page, as what the commit
871dfbd67d4e ("drm/i915: Allow compaction upto SWIOTLB max segment size") fixed
for regular GEM objects.
We can fix that by adding new a __sg_alloc_table_from_pages core function which
allows us to control the maximum desired coalesced segment size.
Other than that the series starts with two simple fixes to
sg_alloc_table_from_pages which deal with incorrect data type usage and a
theoretical overflow condition. Fixing the latter enables easy addition of the
above mentioned __sg_alloc_table_from_pages.
Tvrtko Ursulin (4):
lib/scatterlist: Fix offset type in sg_alloc_table_from_pages
lib/scatterlist: Avoid potential scatterlist entry overflow
lib/scatterlist: Introduce and export __sg_alloc_table_from_pages
drm/i915: Use __sg_alloc_table_from_pages for userptr allocations
