> Commit b590ace09d51 ('sfc: Fix efx_rx_buf_offset() in the presence of

> dma_addr fields. However, it failed to add the necessary assignment
> in efx_resurrect_rx_buffer(). It also did not correct the calculation
> of efx_rx_buffer::dma_addr in efx_resurrect_rx_buffer(), which assumes
> that DMA-mapping a page will result in a page-aligned DMA address
> (exactly what swiotlb violates).
