In a nutshell, netdev's design currently needs struct pages to do DMA
to it's packet buffers.
So it cannot consume the scatterlist that dmabuf puts out
RDMA doesn't need struct pages at all, so it is fine.
If Mina can go down the path of changing netdev to avoid needing
struct pages then no changes to DRM side things.
Otherwise a P2P struct page and a co-existance with netmem on a
ZONE_DEVICE page would be required. :\
