The last line above seems to be accidentally modified when compared to
the one at:
https://lore.kernel.org/r/ada462d5-157a-4e11-ba25-d412a2bb678f@ti.com/
"Hence, describe the VMAP registers which are optionally
configured whenever PVU is used for PCIe."

If you intended to modify it, then the sentence appears distorted.

Siddharth.
