This is already sort of built into the sgl, you are supposed to use
is_pci_p2pdma_page() and pci_p2pdma_map_sg() and somehow it is supposed
to work out - but I think this is also fairly incomplete.
ie the current APIs seem to assume the SGL is homogeneous :(

The struct page only points to the BAR - it is not related to the
actual GPU memory in any way. The struct page is just an alternative
way to specify the physical address of the BAR page.
I think this boils down to one call to setup the entire BAR, like nvme
does, and then using the struct page in the p2p_map SGL??
