I've got patches pending to replace all that code with
dma_direct_alloc, which will do the right thing.  They were
submitted for 4.16, and I will resend them after -rc1.
I see, thanks Christoph !
Hi Christoph 

It seems 4.16 has shipped ( :) ) , and intel_alloc_coherent() still has no NUMA awareness.
Actually, that code went in and then got reverted again..
Should I respin https://lore.kernel.org/patchwork/patch/884326/
Maybe.  We are still hoping to convert intel-iommu to the dma-iommu
framework, but I'm not sure how long that is going to take, so maybe
just respin it for now.
