Currently direct_mapping always use the smallest pgsize which is SZ_4K normally to mapping. This is unnecessary. we could gather the size, and call iommu_map then, iommu_map could decide how to map better with the just right pgsize. >From the original comment, we should take care overlap, otherwise, iommu_map may return -EEXIST. In this overlap case, we should map the previous region before overlap firstly. then map the left part. Each a iommu device will call this direct_mapping when its iommu initialize, This patch is effective to improve the boot/initialization time especially while it only needs level 1 mapping.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
