Patchset Summary:
Enhance a PCIe host controller driver. Because of its unusual design
we are foced to change dev->dma_pfn_offset into a more general role
allowing multiple offsets. See the 'v1' notes below for more info.

We are version 11 and counting, and it is not clear to me whether there is
any chance of getting these patches reviewed and hopefully merged for the
5.10 merge window.

There are a lot of different files being touched, so what would be the
ideal way of routing those changes towards inclusion?

FYI, I offered to take the dma-mapping bits through the dma-mapping tree.
I have a bit of a backlog, but plan to review and if Jim is ok with that
apply the current version.
Sounds good to me.

Hi Jim,

is the dependency now solved ? Should we review/take this series as
is for v5.10 through the PCI tree ?
Hello Lorenzo,

We are still working out a regression with the DMA offset commit on
the RaspberryPi. Nicolas has found the root cause and we are now
devising a solution.

Maybe we can parallelize the PCIe driver review while the DMA changes are being worked on in Christoph's branch. Lorenzo, are you fine with the PCIe changes proper?
