Jason Gunthorpe a665aca89a RDMA/umem: Split ib_umem_num_pages() into ib_umem_num_dma_blocks()
ib_umem_num_pages() should only be used by things working with the SGL in
CPU pages directly.

Drivers building DMA lists should use the new ib_num_dma_blocks() which
returns the number of blocks rdma_umem_for_each_block() will return.

To make this general for DMA drivers requires a different implementation.
Computing DMA block count based on umem->address only works if the
requested page size is < PAGE_SIZE and/or the IOVA == umem->address.

Instead the number of DMA pages should be computed in the IOVA address
space, not umem->address. Thus the IOVA has to be stored inside the umem
so it can be used for these calculations.

For now set it to umem->address by default and fix it up if
ib_umem_find_best_pgsz() was called. This allows drivers to be converted
to ib_umem_num_dma_blocks() safely.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
