Yes, it automatically uses the direct map:

void *
pmap_mapdev_attr(vm_paddr_t pa, vm_size_t size, int mode)
{
        vm_offset_t va, offset;
        vm_size_t tmpsize;

        /*
         * If the specified range of physical addresses fits within the
direct
         * map window, use the direct map.
         */
        if (pa < dmaplimit && pa + size < dmaplimit) {
                va = PHYS_TO_DMAP(pa);
                if (!pmap_change_attr(va, size, mode))
                        return ((void *)va);
