This treats both directions as equally important.  I don't know P2PDMA
very well, but that doesn't seem like it would necessarily be the
case.  I would think a common case would be device A doing DMA to B,
but B *not* doing DMA to A.  So can you tell which direction you're
setting up here, and can you take advantage of any asymmetry, e.g., by
enabling 10-bit tags in the direction that supports it even if the
other direction does not?
