dma_alloc_attrs() would allocate contiguous memory, which kind of goes
against the vb2_dma_sg allocator idea. Technically we could call it N
times with size = 1 page to achieve what we want, but is this really
what we want?

Given that vb2_dma_sg has always been returning non-consistent memory,
do we have any good reason to add consistent memory to it? If so,
perhaps we could still do that in an incremental patch, to avoid
complicating this already complex series? :)
