The current code assumes 0 offset, and 'addr' is the nominal starting address of the
buffer. If this is to be changed to offset, then yes, some more handling is needed
as you mentioned below.

ib_dma_map() uses dma_map_single(), GPU drivers use dma_map_resource() for
dma_buf_map_attachment(). They belong to the same family, but take different
address type (kernel address vs MMIO physical address). Could you elaborate what
the problem could be for non-mlx5 HCAs?
