Why do you use vmalloc here in the first place?

Will you also adjust direct mapping to have shared bit set?

If not, we will have problems with load_unaligned_zeropad() when it will
access shared pages via non-shared mapping.

If direct mapping is adjusted, we will get direct mapping fragmentation.

Maybe tap into swiotlb buffer using DMA API?
