Thank you for the comments. So, should I wait for getting rid of the

I worry about this issue exists on v5.2-stable.
It does exist on 5.2-stable and we should fix it. I'll plan to resend
my series to fix the virt_boundary issues for the other SCSI driver
soon, but we'll still need to sort out usb-storage.
I guess that getting rid of the virt_boundary_mask stuff [1] needs more time.
So, for v5.2-stable, would you accept my patch as a workaround?
JFYI, v5.2-rc7 still has this "swiotlb buffer is full" issue.
Hi, Yoshihiro,
I have been implementing v2 of this patch according to Alan's comment
(allocate small buffers and urbs instead of one big buffer) and it
takes some time. The implementation is almost done but I think it
will take a few days or more because of the test and bug fix...

Hi Yoshihiro,
Suwan's patch series will definitely won't make it before 5.2 comes
out. There is not enough time for that. Please send you work-around.
Suwan,
I figured you have been working on Alan's feedback on your patch series.
Thanks for working on the fixing the problem.
thanks,
