[reviving a old thread]

Johannes, if you have a minute: did anything ever come out of that? Or
did anyone else step in to take care of Intels's IOSM driver? Martian
(now CCed) struggles with a problem
(https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=218383 [no, not a
regression iirc]) for a while now and is kinda stuck. We discussed
off-list submitting a "mark as orphan" patch, but then I found this
discussion.

Ciao, Thorsten
