dma_mmap_attrs() and dma_get_sgtable_attrs() get input virtual address

The new map virtual address is only to access bounce buffer in swiotlb
code and will not be used other places. It's stored in the mem->vstart.
So the new API set_memory_decrypted_map() in this series is only called
in the swiotlb code. Other platforms may replace set_memory_decrypted()
with set_memory_decrypted_map() as requested.

It seems like you are indeed not using these new helpers in
dma_direct_alloc.  How is dma_alloc_attrs/dma_alloc_coherent going to
work on these systems?


Current vmbus device drivers don't use dma_alloc_attrs/dma_alloc
_coherent() because vmbus driver allocates ring buffer for all devices. Ring buffer has been marked decrypted and remapped in vmbus driver. Netvsc and storvsc drivers just need to use dma_map_single/dma_map_page().
