Note that the page will be mapped in to guest, so it's only safe if the 
doorbeel exclusively own the page. This means if there're other 
registers in the page, we can not let the doorbell bypass to work.

So this is suspicious at least in the case of subfunction where we 
calculate the bar length in mlx5_sf_dev_table_create() as:

table->sf_bar_length = 1 << (MLX5_CAP_GEN(dev, log_min_sf_size) + 12);

It looks to me this can only work for the arch with PAGE_SIZE = 4096, 
otherwise we can map more into the userspace(guest).

Thanks
