I would love more patches and I saw the previous one you posted.
But we only got two (or one) weeks before the next merge window opens
so I am sending to Linus the one that was tested with NVMe and crypto
(see above).
That is the
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/swiotlb.git/commit/?h=stable/for-linus-5.14
And then after Linus releases the 5.14 - I would love to take your
cleanup on top of that and test it?

Yup. Working on that now.
