Can you use scsi_dma_map() here?

Please use scsi_for_each_sg().

You can't directly access to use_sg, request_buffer, request_bufflen,
and resid in scsi_cmnd structure. Please use the scsi data accessors
in scsi_cmnd.h: scsi_sg_count, scsi_sglist, scsi_bufflen,
scsi_set_resid, and scsi_get_resid.

Yeah, iommu code ignores the lld limitations (the problem is that the
lld limitations are in request_queue and iommu code can't access to
request_queue). There is no way to tell iommu code about the lld
limitations.
