Hi,

The PCI p2p and tunnel code is used by the Mellanox CX5 driver, at least 
their latest, out of tree version, which is used for CORAL. My 
understanding is that they'll upstream it at some point, though I don't 
know what their schedule is like.
FYI, Max who wrote (at least larger parts of) that code is on Cc agreed
that all P2P code should go through the kernel P2P infrastructure and
might be able to spend some cycles on it.

Which still doesn't change anything about that fact that we [1]
generally don't add infrastructure for anything that is not in the
tree.

[1] well, powernv seems to have handles this a little oddly, and now is
on my special watchlist.
