Oh, I see! OK Maybe just add a note that it follows PCIE 10.4.1

size would be an advice how much data the requestor is expecting to
fetch. Eg of the PRI initiator knows it is going to do a 10MB transfer
it could fill in 10MB and the OS could pre-fault in 10MB of IOVA.

It is not in the spec, it may never be in the spec, but it seems like
it would be good to consider it, at least make sure we have
compatability to add it later.

I'm not sure, the other discussion about grpid seems to be the main
question so lets see there.
