I wouldn't be sure about this. It's not common to have buffers of
such size and crossing pages boundaries. It really can trigger
nasty bugs on various IOMMU drivers.

Not sure if I understand what you mean.

If that's the case we should be fine, but then I do not understand
why we allocate 8*2k buffers for sg_en case, isn't that AP can
sent AMSDU frame 16k big?
