This is my alternative take on this series from Jason: https://lore.kernel.org/dri-devel/87czsszi9i.fsf@redhat.com/T/ (local) The mdev/vfio parts are exactly the same, but this solves the driver core changes for the direct probing without the in/out flag that Greg hated, which cause a little more work, but probably make the result better.
I did some testing and it looks good, thanks I see Alex has this in hch-mdev-direct-v4 in linux-next now, so expecting this to be in the next merge window? The AP prep patches seemed sorted so I'll resend the AP patch in three weeks Jason
