Given that habanalabs dma-buf support is very firmly in limbo (at
least it's not yet in linux-next or anywhere else) I think you want to
solve that problem first before we tackle the additional issue of
making p2p work without dynamic dma-buf. Without that it just doesn't
make a lot of sense really to talk about solutions here.
