This is a good warning. The code here does look wrong (both lines 367 and 427).
Instead of peer_mmio, the code here should use pci_resource_start(pcidev, 0) +
AMD_PEER_OFFSET. For comparison, in ntb_hw_intel the offset is based on a
physical address stored in peer_addr, not the virtual mapping of that address
in peer_mmio.
Look at ntb_hw_amd around lines 1016 where self_mmio and peer_mmio are set up.
The register physical address is never saved in the ndev object, only the
virtual address is saved, therefore the physical address would need to be
retrieved with pci_resoruce_start wherever it is used in the ntb_hw_amd driver.
Alternatively, the offending functions could be deleted until they are added
later, after they have been tested. Note that the ntb_foo_addr functions are
an optional part of the api for drivers to implement.
