Propagate the swiotlb_force into io_tlb_default_mem->force_bounce and
use it to determine whether to bounce the data or not. This will be
useful later to allow for different pools.

Reverting the rest of the series up to this patch fixed a boot crash with NVMe on today's linux-next.

Hmm, so that makes patch 7 the suspicious one, right?

Looking at that one more closely, it looks like swiotlb_find_slots() takes
'alloc_size + offset' as its 'alloc_size' parameter from
swiotlb_tbl_map_single() and initialises 'mem->slots[i].alloc_size' based
on 'alloc_size + offset', which looks like a change in behaviour from the
old code, which didn't include the offset there.

swiotlb_release_slots() then adds the offset back on afaict, so we end up
accounting for it twice and possibly unmap more than we're supposed to?
