Apologies Bjorn, I was so focussed on the DAX bits of this series which
had grown significantly and forgot to update the P2PDMA stuff. It's
largely independent of the DAX changes anyway, so unless you disagree I
think it would be best if I split it out into a separate series. Thanks
for taking a look.

To be clear I fully agree with the above, I just failed to do it.
