busdma should be managing this behind the scenes. You shouldn't care,
as the problematical usb controllers, if any, can do the bouncing as
required. We need to get the hierarchical bus tagging stuff more
fully integrated, then we'd get this for free.
Of course, you'd have to stop using contigmalloc to allocate all the
memory for usb. That won't work on some of the embedded platforms we
have, for example, because memory on them isn't as fungible as it is
on i386 and amd64.
