The kernel could be benifit due to BLOCK_MAPPINGS, see commit
031495635b46 ("arm64: Do not defer reserve_crashkernel() for
platforms with no DMA memory zones"), if there is only with
ZONE_DMA32, we could set arm64_dma_phys_limit to max_zone_phys(32)
earlier in arm64_memblock_init(), then we will benifit too.

Thanks for noticing platforms with just ZONE_DMA32 config can also benefit BLOCK_MAPPINGS.  I assume you have access to one where you notice the difference with proposed changes and able to test.  I did test proposed changes on SoC we use with IOMMU (no ZONE_DMA configs enabled).
I backported your patches into 5.10 and tested(unixbench will benifit due to block mapping, only with DMA32 and rodata=false)

Nits --
- benifit -> benefit
- consider making commit message clear, "then we will.." seems you are referring to platforms with just ZONE_DMA32 config enabled
- to reflect new change consider updating comment added in commit 031495635b46
Thanks for your reviewing,  will update and test with upstream.
