It should be strict inequality for the upper bound here.

Note that this wraparound case souldn't be happening (the driver avoids
moving enqueue into deq_seg to simplify ring expansion) so no amount of
testing will catch problems here, until maybe something changes one day.

The situation is tricky now, because we are either in start_seg and
end_seg is elsewhere or in start_seg->next and wraparound. But it looks
like the loop below will work OK for either case.

This condition looks like it could use the in_range() macro.

I suppose this only happens if end_seg is not on the ring, fair enough.

Maybe a comment here? Something like:

* At this point seg contains the dma and either:
* a. start_seg != end_seg and seg can be anywhere
* b. start_seg == end_seg in wraparound case and seg != start_seg

This should be corrent, but it's not something immediately obvious.

Not sure if this new implementation is really simpler than the old one.
I wonder if it wouldn't make sense to reorder this after the API change
(patch 4/4) to allow emergency revert if something unexpected shows up.

As for efficiency, those virt_to_dma translations aren't exactly free
and there are two. Maybe it could be faster to translate dma to virt
once and then compare. Sometimes also sizeof(*) < sizeof(dma_addr_t).
