On second thought, I don't think either approach is OK.  The default
alignment in the swiotlb is 2K, and if the length of the data in the
buffer was 3K, the data could cross a page boundary in the bounce
buffer when it originally did not.  This would break the above code
which can only deal with one page at a time.  So I think the netvsc
driver also must set the DMA min_align_mask to 4K, which will
preserve the offset.
