I think you should update that description a bit. It took me some time to find 
out you are not talking about mmap() on PCI resource files in general, but 
those that are backed by I/O BARs. The other ones work fine on x86 with mmap().

The "write" can be bool.

No need to cast here, private is void* anyway.
