The above should work for sure, but a question is, in the case of
confidential computing, if a driver detects a malicious device, is it
really good to try to keep working or warn and disable the device? Or
maybe we can have an option for the user to decide?

I don't see any dependencies for DMA, I mean anyhow the in buffer is
allocated by the driver, so it should know how large it is.

If I understand correctly, we will probably support premapped DMA
buffers soon (AF_XDP and page pool)?
