On many GPUs you can do that, it is hardware dependant and you have
steps to take but it is something you can do (and GPU can do
continuous DMA traffic have they have threads running that can
do continuous memory access). So i assume that other hardware
can do it too.

Any revocation mechanism gonna be device/sub-system specific so it
would probably be better to talk case by case and see what we can
do. Like i said posted patches to remove GUP from GPUs driver, i
am working on improving some core code to make those patches even
simpler and i will keep pushing for that in subsystem i know.

Maybe we should grep for GUP in drivers/ and start discussion within
each sub-system to see what can be done within each. If any common
pattern emerge we can draw up common plans for those at least.
