* Some systems need to revert to PIO when DMA is temporarily
* unavailable. For their sakes, both transfer_buffer and
* transfer_dma are set when possible. However this can only
- * work on systems without HIGHMEM, since DMA buffers located
- * in high memory are not directly addressable by the CPU for
- * PIO ... so when HIGHMEM is in use, transfer_buffer is NULL
+ * work on systems without:
+ *
+ * - HIGHMEM, since DMA buffers located in high memory are
+ * not directly addressable by the CPU for PIO;
+ *
+ * - IOMMU, since dma_map_sg() is allowed to use an IOMMU to
+ * make virtually discontiguous buffers be "dma-contiguous"
+ * so that PIO and DMA need diferent numbers of URBs.
+ *
+ * So when HIGHMEM or IOMMU are in use, transfer_buffer is NULL
* to prevent stale pointers and to help spot bugs.
