This is complimentary patchset to the series which adds new DMA mapping API [1].
In this series, Christoph converts existing nvme-pci driver to use new API, which
is wrapped by relevant blk-mq helpers, so future blk drivers can reuse them in
block layer specific structures.
This is posted as RFC as it is under heavy testing now, and presented
here to get feedback from the community and show another advanced use
case of the new API.
Thanks

Christoph Hellwig (7):
block: share more code for bio addition helpers
block: don't merge different kinds of P2P transfers in a single bio
blk-mq: add a dma mapping iterator
blk-mq: add scatterlist-less DMA mapping helpers
nvme-pci: remove struct nvme_descriptor
nvme-pci: use a better encoding for small prp pool allocations
nvme-pci: convert to blk_rq_dma_map
