Subject: swiotlb: ensure that page-sized mappings are page-aligned
From: Nikita Yushchenko <nikita.yoush@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit 602d9858f07c72eab64f5f00e2fae55f9902cfbe ]
Some drivers do depend on page mappings to be page aligned.
Swiotlb already enforces such alignment for mappings greater than page,
extend that to page-sized mappings as well.
Without this fix, nvme hits BUG() in nvme_setup_prps(), because that routine
assumes page-aligned mappings.
