Can you please elaborate a bit more? Is it because in the presence of IOMMU,
a contiguous DMA or bus-address-space "buffer" may be mapped non-contiguously
into the physical address space? As a result, for buffers larger than a page
size, when PSP tries to map the physical address into it's address space, the
PSP Trusted OS will not be able to read back the entire buffer data.
