Run "git log --oneline drivers/pci" and follow the convention. I
think it would make sense to add a new tag like "PCI/P2P", although
"P2P" has historically also been used in the "PCI-to-PCI bridge"
context, so maybe there's something less ambiguous. "P2PDMA"?
When you add new files, I guess
Some PCI devices may have memory mapped in a BAR space that's
intended for use in Peer-to-Peer transactions. In order to enable
such transactions the memory must be registered with ZONE_DEVICE pages
so it can be used by DMA interfaces in existing drivers.
A kernel interface is provided so that
