I don't think so. Without ACCESS_PLATFORM it's not DMA, so DMA API
should be avoided. And we have several software devices for virtio
now.

I'd suggest involving AF_XDP maintainers to join the discussion to
seek a solution. I tend to agree with Christoph that everything will
be simplified if DMA is done at the driver level.

Thanks
