Introduce pci_mmap_p2pmem() which is a helper to allocate and mmap a hunk of p2pmem into userspace.

Nothing uses it and no vm_operations ops are implemented?It's necessary to free the allocated p2pmem when the mapping is torn down.That's suspicious.. Once in a VMA the lifetime of the page must be controlled by the page refcount, it can't be put back into the genpool just because the vma was destroed.
Ah, hmm, yes. I guess the pages have to be hooked and returned to the genalloc through free_devmap_managed_page(). Seems like it might be doable... but it will complicate things for users that don't want to use the genpool (though no such users exist upstream). Logan
