Are you worried by the changes in this patch or about the possibility of having 

The reason for this change is that I noticed if you create one mr in one asid
you could be blocked out from creating another one in a different asid due to
mr->initialized being true. To me that seemed problematic. Is it not?

How will that be possible? _mlx5_vdpa_create_mr calls _mlx5_vdpa_create_dvq_mr
and _mlx5_vdpa_create_cvq_mr. The only thing that is different in this patch is
that the cvq is not protected by an init flag. My understanding was that it
would be ok to dup_iotlb again. Is it not? If not I could add an additional
initialized flag for the cvq mr.
