The condition in xen_swiotlb_free_coherent() for deciding whether to
call xen_destroy_contiguous_region() is wrong: in case the region to
be freed is not contiguous calling xen_destroy_contiguous_region() is
the wrong thing to do: it would result in inconsistent mappings of
multiple PFNs to the same MFN. This will lead to various strange
crashes or data corruption.

Instead of calling xen_destroy_contiguous_region() in that case a
warning should be issued as that situation should never occur.

On the allocation side we have

	if (((dev_addr + size - 1 <= dma_mask)) &&
	    !range_straddles_page_boundary(phys, size))
		*dma_handle = dev_addr;
	else {
		if (xen_create_contiguous_region(phys, order,
						 fls64(dma_mask), dma_handle) != 0) {
			xen_free_coherent_pages(hwdev, size, ret, (dma_addr_t)phys, attrs);
			return NULL;
		}
	}

which is (as far as the function call is concerned)

	if ((dev_addr + size - 1 > dma_mask) ||
	    range_straddles_page_boundary(phys, size))
		xen_create_contiguous_region(...);

So I don't think your transformation is correct. Even worse, both
parts of the condition in xen_swiotlb_free_coherent() act on an
address that is the _result_ of the prior
xen_create_contiguous_region(), i.e. the address should always
match _both_ criteria anyway. Whereas what you really want is
undo the xen_create_contiguous_region() only when it actually
was called. Otherwise you also shatter contiguous allocations
that were contiguous already for other reasons (perhaps just
luck).

Yes, that is what patch 3 does.

I know that I modified the condition. Calling
xen_destroy_contiguous_region() for a non-contiguous region is
destructive, so we have to avoid it in any case.

I could be talked into moving both tests into the WARN_ON(), however.
