You seem to have a leak, which actually isn't suprising

rtl8169_xmit_frags allocates a set of maps for a fragmented packet

rtl8169_start_xmit allocates a buffer

When we finish the transit we free the main buffer (always using skb->len
when sometimes its skb->headlne. We don't seem to free the fragment
buffers at all.

Looks like the unmap path for fragmented packets is broken with any kind
of iommu
