I find this commit message a bit confusing, but AFAICT the problem with 
the Panfrost code is really in mmu_map_sg() where we don't have the 
return value from dma_map_sg() and the for_each_sg() loop could (in 
theory) run off the end of the list.

The fix seems correct - store the return where it's meant to be (nents) 
and make sure when unmapping we use the original (orig_nents). So you 
might also consider adding:

Fixes: f3ba91228e8e ("drm/panfrost: Add initial panfrost driver")

Even better would be the wrappers you mention in the cover letter! ;)
