And exactly that was NAKed the last time it came up. Only the exporting 
driver is allowed to mmap() the DMA-buf into the guest.

This way you also don't need to transport any caching information anywhere.

Ok that leaves me completely puzzled. How does that work in the first place?

In other words how does the mapping into the guest page tables happen?
