I think this is using ODP too literally, dmabuf isn't going to need
fine grained page faults, and I'm not sure this locking scheme is OK -
ODP is horrifically complicated.
If this is the approach then I think we should make dmabuf its own
stand alone API, reg_user_mr_dmabuf()
The implementation in mlx5 will be much more understandable, it would
just do dma_buf_dynamic_attach() and program the XLT exactly the same
as a normal umem.
The move_notify() simply zap's the XLT and triggers a work to reload
it after the move. Locking is provided by the dma_resv_lock. Only a
small disruption to the page fault handler is needed.

This doesn't look right, this lock has to be held up until the HW is
prorgammed
The use of atomic looks probably wrong as well.

This isn't fragmenting the sg into a page list properly, won't work
for unaligned things
And really we don't need the dma_list for this case, with a fixed
whole mapping DMA SGL a normal umem sgl is OK and the normal umem XLT
programming in mlx5 is fine.
