That would be great to do, but nvme needs to calculate a data digest and doing that in a separate scan of the payload is not very cache friendly...
There is also the fact that the payload may be sent in portions asynchronously driven by how the controller wants to accept them, so there is some complexity there.
But worth looking at for sure.
The patch looks good to me, taking it to run some tests (from sendpage-3-frag branch in your kernel.org tree correct?)
For now, you can add: Reviewed-by: Sagi Grimberg <sagi@grimberg.me>
