Rename the IOMMU DMA mapping functions to better reflect their actual calling convention. The functions iommu_dma_map_page() and iommu_dma_unmap_page() are renamed to iommu_dma_map_phys() and iommu_dma_unmap_phys() respectively, as they already operate on physical addresses rather than page structures. The calling convention changes from accepting (struct page *page, unsigned long offset) to (phys_addr_t phys), which eliminates the need for page-to-physical address conversion within the functions. This renaming prepares for the broader DMA API conversion from page-based to physical address-based mapping throughout the kernel. All callers are updated to pass physical addresses directly, including dma_map_page_attrs(), scatterlist mapping functions, and DMA page allocation helpers. The change simplifies the code by removing the page_to_phys() + offset calculation that was previously done inside the IOMMU functions.

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 reStructuredText 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.
