We could just make the DART pages CI in the linear mapping rather than
not mapping it. That would make it "just work" with the normal code
path.
I didn't think that was even possible because it's mapped in larger
blocks than that. If it is then all this hackery can go, I'm not
attached to it...
Well.. the linear mapping is mapped with 16M pages. The DART only uses a
couple of MB but we blast an entire 16M page for it because of that ...

We could probably just map that 16MB page CI rather than not mapping it
and later on ioremapping the DART.
