In this case we know the size of the packet and therefore only need to
handle that.
In the other cases we don't know have big the receiving packet is
going to be, so we has to
take care of the whole buffer.
Well, it's a seriously bad idea to pass different values to map and
unmap steps, because on some platforms you could wind up telling the
IOMMU or some other allocator that you are allocating N bytes, but
freeing N-M bytes. IOW, a leak.
Now that that's been clarified, please fix up the patch and resubmit...
with this issue fixed, it looks apply-able.
