But I never received any answers. usb-storage must use scsi_add_host_with_dma to use the right device for DMA mapping and parameters. The calls to set the DMA options on the device are needed so that IOMMU merging doesn't change the imposed requirements. If these requirements slow you down you need to relax them, as apparently the hardware is able to handle bigger limits.
