The P2P from the storage folks are some mix of raw p2p capability 
detection for PCI and higher level interface.

I'm actually waiting for that stuff to land to extract the p2p 
capability detection and use it for this DMA-buf stuff as well.

Alternative would be to convince Logan to extract the capability 
detection in his patch set as well, but so far he wasn't very keen about 
that.
