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?
Yeah, sorry I didn't send out an "applied" note, end of the day
yesterday and forgot today.  My bad.  I expect this to go into v5.14
given the acks and Greg's deferral for the driver-core changes to go
through the vfio tree.  Speak now, or... Thanks,

Alex
