It's mapping a PCI BAR but not for PCIe P2P. In this case, we are using
the Intel I/OAT DMA engine to copy data from a PCI BAR to/from memory. See:

Ok, I can resubmit this with that cleanup. Should I do it in two commits
(1 revert + 1 new) or is one commit that just restores the original
helper fine?
