I got that kind of wrong. They *were* mapped, but need to be left mostly
alone...maybe you can word it better. Here's my second draft:

/*
  * Unmaps pages, except for PCI_P2PDMA pages, which should not be unmapped at
  * this point. Instead of unmapping PCI_P2PDMA entries, simply remove the
  * SG_PCI_P2PDMA mark.
  */

...am I getting close? :)
