Nothing itself. There is obviously a documentation issue, which really
confuses people who are new to that stuff. I thought that fixing it, by
just adding a view lines of code (really a view, when I remove the DMA
masque part) might enhance this particular module. 

Anyway, what is wrong when the uio_pci_generic module works like
described in the related documentation?
