OK, coming back to this patch, after seeing how it is used later in
the series...

Silly fine point for the docs here: it doesn't actually have to be on
the stack, so I don't think you need to write that constraint in the
documentation. It just has be be somehow allocated and zeroed.

Should this be backed up with actual checks in the function, that
the prerequisites are met?

I'll quote myself from patch 9, because I had a comment there that actually
was meant for this patch:

Is it worth putting this stuff on the caller's stack? I mean, is there a
noticeable performance improvement from caching the state? Because if
it's invisible, then simplicity is better. I suspect you're right, and
that it *is* worth it, but it's good to know for real.

Or:

  * pci_p2pdma_map_bus_segment - map an SG segment that is already known
  * to be mapped with PCI_P2PDMA_MAP_BUS_ADDR

Also, should that prerequisite be backed up with checks in the function?

Another prerequisite, so same question: do you think that the code should
also check that this prerequisite is met?
