Wouldn't the smal patch below solve the same issue in a simple way?

That assumes that all devices accessing a shared pool will have the same
dma_pfn_offset as the first one, which cannot strictly be relied upon
(even if it is highly likely in practice).

Robin has already commented on this - dma_pfn_offset may vary across devices
and reserved memory region may be shared between them.

Which seems like another argument why the global pool should be
a different implementation / interface than the per-device dma
mapping helpers..
