pfn_hi is inclusive, so I don't think this is actually working as intended - if a full space is being freed one page at a time, this will never move the limit at all (because it's adding 0).
As I mentioned before, though, I'm really not convinced that it's worth trying to be even this clever here - we don't know that the IOVA we're freeing is contiguous with other free space, so the only benefit of doing this calculation instead of simply resetting the limit to max (i.e. dma_32bit_pfn) is that a subsequent allocation larger than (max_32_alloc_size + iova_size(free)) pages will still fail early instead of late. My gut feeling is that that case will be rare enough that it won't make a noticeable difference to realistic workloads, so we may as well stick with the simplest possible "almost boolean" approach and not bother with a calculation at all.

This probably still warrants a brief comment to help document the exact meaning, maybe something like "/* Size of last failed allocation */"?
For a while I've had the feeling that it might be possible to do something clever with an augmented rbtree to fundamentally optimise the search for a free area, but for now I reckon that - modulo those last couple of comments - this is a good enough solution for the current problem.
Thanks, Robin.
