Thanks for fixing this! I was out at a conference last week, so I didn't
get very far with it myself, but I ended up in a pickle trying to avoid
extending 'struct io_tlb_slot'. Your solution is much better than the
crazy avenue I started going down...

With your changes, can we now simplify swiotlb_align_offset() to ignore
dma_get_min_align_mask() altogether and just:

	return addr & (IO_TLB_SIZE - 1);

?

Will
