It is expected the creator of the dma-direct bio will ensure the target device can access the DMA address it's creating bios for. It's also not possible to bounce a dma-direct bio seeing the block layer doesn't have any way to access the underlying data behind the DMA address. Thus, never bounce dma-direct bios.
