Maybe it's just me, but I would find it easier to figure out what's being
fixed here if commit message said something like:
When the BO being mapped spans multiple scatterlists, offset is not cleared
after the starting scatterlist, leading to holes in the mapping.
If I understand it correctly you found this based on some WARN() being
triggered,
so maybe adding the dump here would've helped too.

Again, my preference so feel free to ignore, but I would put the resetting of
offset at the
end of for_each_sgtable_dma_sg() loop, after the if (!size) break lines. That
way it is clear
that it applies to the next iteration of the loop.
