Userspace is supposed to test whether import/export works for a
specific combo, not blindly assume it does and then keel over. I think
we need to fix that, not add more flags - there's lots of reasons why
a given pair of devices can't share buffers (e.g. all the contiguous
allocations stuff on socs).

Yeah that's not an option.
