All this DMA stuff doesn't fit into a "uio_pci_generic" driver. There might
be users who need other kinds of DMA handling.

If you need this, please make it a new driver and name it after your device.

Do you really have x86 ports on your PCI card?

As Michael said, why don't you just use the existing PCI sysfs files?

I don't really object to your approach, but I'd like to hear a reason
why you can't live with the existing possibilities.

Thanks,
