By default, the kernel allocates a large SWIOTLB (DMA bounce buffer), resulting in 64 MB of reserved memory. Set `swiotlb=128` in the kernel command line to limit SWIOTLB allocation to 2 MB, reducing overall reserved memory. A similar configuration was used in QLI1.0 releases.

Is 2 MiB enough? Do we have CONFIG_SWIOTLB_DYNAMIC enabled to get more pools if required?
