The Documentation/DMA-API-HOWTO.txt states that the dma_map_sg() function
returns the number of the created entries in the DMA address space.
However the subsequent calls to the dma_sync_sg_for_{device,cpu}() and
dma_unmap_sg must be called with the original number of the entries
passed to the dma_map_sg().

struct sg_table is a common structure used for describing a non-contiguous
memory buffer, used commonly in the DRM and graphics subsystems. It
consists of a scatterlist with memory pages and DMA addresses (sgl entry),
as well as the number of scatterlist entries: CPU pages (orig_nents entry)
and DMA mapped pages (nents entry).

It turned out that it was a common mistake to misuse nents and orig_nents
entries, calling DMA-mapping functions with a wrong number of entries or
ignoring the number of mapped entries returned by the dma_map_sg()
function.

To avoid such issues, lets use a common dma-mapping wrappers operating
directly on the struct sg_table objects and use scatterlist page
iterators where possible. This, almost always, hides references to the
nents and orig_nents entries, making the code robust, easier to follow
and copy/paste safe.

Ahh, I saw the build failure report. You're changing the DMA API in
this series, while DMA API isn't used by this driver, it uses IOMMU
API. Hence there is no need to touch this code. Similar problem in the
host1x driver patch.

The issue is caused by the lack of iommu_map_sgtable() stub when no 
IOMMU support is configured. I've posted a patch for this:

https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20200630081756.18526-1-m.szyprowski@samsung.com/

The patch for this driver is fine, we have to wait until the above fix 
gets merged and then it can be applied during the next release cycle.
