Outside the scope of this patch/series:
Do we perhaps want to add a bus_master_enable() callback also for the
pci-epf-test driver?

In my opinion, the test driver should be "the driver" that tests that
all the EPF features/callbacks work, at least a basic test "does it
work at all". Other EPF drivers can implement the callbacks, and do
more intelligent things, i.e. more than just seeing that "it works".


Kind regards,
Niklas
