Yeah this is really slow and the worst way to do it. You absolutely want
to start _all_ the io before you start creating the dma-buf, ideally with
everything running in parallel. But just starting the direct I/O with
async and then creating the umdabuf should be a lot faster and avoid
needlessly serialization operations.

The other issue is that the mmap has some overhead, but might not be too
bad.
