You explicitly noted the need to check for the hw_direct_map in the comment, so I did not see a need to explain further. We intended that PHYS_TO_DMAP/DMAP_TO_PHYS become MI KPI. If the symbols are present, their semantic is the unconditional presence and usability of the direct map. sf bufs were rototiled with things like SFBUF_OPTIONAL_DIRECT_MAP, but I dislike it and hope that PHYS_TO_DMAP would be not damaged this way.
