I trust your judgement and was unsure too. I think for the
s390_mmio_read/write syscalls the only existing users out there are via
rdma-core, so unless Jason tells us that he thinks they could also be
affected by the lack of page fault handling I see no problem in going
upstream only.

I also agree with this going via the vfio tree. I don't forsee
conflicts with 1.
