At least the Mellanox driver patch looks like a good improvement:

 5 files changed, 202 insertions(+), 452 deletions(-)

In fact it hollows out the 'umem_odp' driver abstraction we already
had in the RDMA core.

So, I fully expect to see this API used in mlx5 and RDMA-core after it
is merged.

We've done some testing now, and there are still some outstanding
questions on the driver parts, but I haven't seen anything
fundamentally wrong with HMM mirror come up.
