Do you think this should be a major blocker for pulling this series in 5.14?
Would you be okay to accept this change in the subsequent driver updates?

This DMA controller is intended to be used with AMD Non-Transparent
Bridge devices and not for general purpose peripheral DMA. Hence marking
it as DMA_PRIVATE.
