What is this based on? I can't apply it on my latest that I had
sent to Linus?

Could you rebase this one please on:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/swiotlb.git stable/for-linus-4.9

Thanks?

Or if alternatively that does not - then please rebase it on
b5cab0da75c292ffa0fbd68dd2c820066b2842de

Thanks!
