Sounds great, thanks

BTW, I was informed offlist that Saeed also has fix to this issue,
but I don't know if he wants to progress with that fix as it has wrong
RCA in commit message and as an outcome of that much complex solution,
which is not necessary.

So I would be happy to see your patch with mlx5_dma_init().

Thanks
