Yes, I have seen that and this is completely utterly nonsense.
I have absolutely no idea how you came to the conclusion that this would
work.

Well the problem isn't creating struct pages for DMA-buf, most exporters
actually do have struct pages backing the memory they are exporting.
The problem is that the importer should *not* touch those struct pages
because that would create all kinds of trouble.

Well as far as I can see neither approach will work.
The question is what you are trying to archive here? Let network drivers
work with p2p? That is certainly possible.

The fundamental problem seems to be that you don't understand what a
struct page is good for and why this is used the way it is in the
network and I/O layer and why it is not used in DMA-buf.
I strongly suggest that you read up on the basic of this before
proposing any solution.
