what kind of dma was there? an IOMMU? which vendors? in which mode
of operation?

This kind of difference is likely in the noise.

I guess I see that. But why?
And these two comments are the extent of the available
documentation, that's not enough I feel.

Is manually reimplementing a linked list the best

If you don't unmap there is no guarantee valid data will be
there in the buffer.

So this is the meat of the proposed optimization. I guess that
if the last buffer we allocated happens to be in the same page
as this one then they can both be mapped for DMA together.
Why last one specifically? Whether next one happens to
be close depends on luck. If you want to try optimizing this
the right thing to do is likely by using a page pool.
There's actually work upstream on page pool, look it up.
