We have problems with this on the imx8mp EVK, because it doesn't account 
for dma-range properties in device tree and so will attempt to allocate 
memory outside the 4GB range that a DWC3 can access. The allocation 
attempts to fall back on the swiotlb, but that's slow even if it 
works...and it can fail and return -ENOMEM if the swiotlb is too small.


Probably some future work needs to fix the vb2_dma_sg_memops to take 
those dma constraints into account, but for now I wouldn't force its use.
