Hi Tomasz,

Thanks for the patch.

Then it's time to fix the spec, and squash 6/9 and 7/9 together (I started 
reviewing 6/9 and the implementation puzzled me until I saw the "fixes" in 
7/9).

We need to agree on a behaviour for the mapping API. I've thought from the 
beginning that mapping the buffer to the importer's device address space 
should be the responsibility of the importer, not the exporter. If we move to 
that approach, we should probably rename the map and unmap functions as they 
won't deal with mappings anymore. I recall that pin/unpin were proposed at 
some point (possible during a meeting at the ELC).

One possible issue with handling mappings in the importer is that the exporter 
won't be able to implement any mapping/unmapping hack that might be needed. As 
the DMA SG API doesn't seem to support VM_PFNMAP memory (see the explanation 
in my reply to 2/9), we will be left without a solution if an exporter uses 
memory not backed with struct page.
