Hi Christian,

it would be rather nice to have if you could separate out the functions to detect if peer2peer is possible between two devices.

This would essentially be pci_p2pdma_distance() in the existing patchset. It returns the sum of the distance between a list of clients and a P2PDMA provider. It returns -1 if peer2peer is not possible between the devices (presently this means they are not behind the same root port).
