I can get behind that :-) Also I realized that even when we need it,
probably best if you merge it to avoid a partially broken feature in the
rdma tree. So not my problem anyway ...

We are likely to delete it entirely this cycle, Christoph already has
a patch series to do it:

https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-rdma/list/?series=379277

So, lets just forget about it

Applied to drm-misc-next, thanks for your patch. For the preceeding
dma-buf patch I'll wait for more review/acks before I apply it. Ack from
Jason might also be good, since looks like this dma_virt_ops is only used
in rdma.
