Given there is roughly a ~5 weeks window at max where this removal could

slowdown. :/
I'd rather turn it upside down - this abuse of the internals blocks work
that has basically just missed the previous window and I'm not going
to wait weeks to sort out the API misuse. But we can add optimizations
back later if we find a sane way.
I'm not super excited about the performance loss, but I do get
Christoph's frustration about gutting the DMA API making it harder for
DMA people to get work done. Lets try to solve this properly using
proper DMA APIs.
Ok, fair enough, please work with DMA folks to get this properly integrated and
restored then. Applied, thanks!
