Convert HMM DMA operations from the legacy page-based API to the new physical address-based dma_map_phys() and dma_unmap_phys() functions. This demonstrates the preferred approach for new code that should use physical addresses directly rather than page+offset parameters. The change replaces dma_map_page() and dma_unmap_page() calls with dma_map_phys() and dma_unmap_phys() respectively, using the physical address that was already available in the code. This eliminates the redundant page-to-physical address conversion and aligns with the DMA subsystem's move toward physical address-centric interfaces. This serves as an example of how new code should be written to leverage the more efficient physical address API, which provides cleaner interfaces for drivers that already have access to physical addresses.

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.
