No change in plans. This patch doesn't disable the overflow buffer. I
kept the functionality from my earlier patch that checks if overflow
buffer size is 0 and not allocate overflow buffer as a way to disable it
for testing. By default the size is 32*1024 and gets crates as usual and
maintains returning the overflow buffer when swiotlb is full.

I am working on this now.
