Now that my integrity metadata DMA series is staged, I don't think we
can use REQ flags like this because data and metadata may have different
mapping types. I think we should add a flags field to the dma_iova_state
instead.

Before integrity metadata code was merged, the assumption was that request is
only one type or p2p or host. Is it still holding now?

I don't think that was ever the case. Metadata is allocated
independently of the data payload, usually by the kernel in
bio_integrity_prep() just before dispatching the request. The bio may
have a p2p data payload, but the integrity metadata is just a kmalloc
buf in that path.

Then you should do two dma mapping operations today, that is how the
API was built. You shouldn't mix P2P and non P2P within a single
operation right now..
