It is passing an address of the end of the mapped area so passing a page struct means passing page and offset which is an extra parameter and we do not want to do anything with the page in those hooks anyway so I'd keep it as is.quoted
and maybe even hide the dma_map_direct inside it.Call dma_map_direct() from arch_dma_map_page_direct() if arch_dma_map_page_direct() is defined? Seems suboptimal as it is going to be bypass=true in most cases and we save one call by avoiding calling arch_dma_map_page_direct(). Unless I missed something?
C does not even evaluate the right hand side of a || expression if the left hand evaluates to true.
