I spoke with Konrad (who wrote the original patch --- f4b2f07b2ed9b469ead87e06fc2fc3d12663a725) and apparently the reason for 2MB was to optimize for Xen's slab allocator, it had nothing to do with IO_TLB_MIN_SLABS. Since this is now common code we should not expose Xen-specific optimizations here and smaller values will still work so IO_TLB_MIN_SLABS is fine.

I think this should be mentioned in the commit message though, probably best in the next patch where you switch to this code.

As far as the hunk above, I don't think we need the max() here: with IO_TLB_MIN_SLABS being 512 we may get stuck in an infinite loop. Something like

	nslabs = ALIGN(nslabs >> 1, IO_TLB_SEGSIZE);
	if (nslabs <= IO_TLB_MIN_SLABS)
		panic()

should be sufficient.

Same here. (The 'if' check above is wrong anyway).

Patches 13 and 14 look good.
