I wouldn't characterize it as a workaround; it's more of a solution.

we can pass highmem to sg_set_page(). This is perfectly fine.

In practice, we consistently use kmap and kunmap even on systems with
low memory.
However, it's worth noting that for low memory scenarios, kmap
essentially returns
page_to_virt(page_address). Thus, the overhead of kmap_to_page shouldn't be
significant on low memory systems, especially considering that it simplifies to
virt_to_page().

Another approach is to consistently employ page_to_virt() for low
memory situations
and reserve kmap for high memory scenarios. However, since we always
utilize kmap
regardless of whether the page is low or high memory, we don't need to concern
ourselves with this distinction

I don't think so because we will need a memcpy then.
