Yup, these are things we definitely want to be able to do, and have done
with hacky garbage code: Direct I/O from NVMe to P2P BAR, then we could
Direct I/O to another drive or map it as an MR and send it over an RNIC.

We'd definitely like to move in that direction. And a world where such
userspace mappings are gimpped by the fact that they are only some
special feature of userspace VMAs that can only be used in specialized
userspace interfaces is not useful to us.
