This is only the minsz if flags includes VFIO_SVM_PID, right?
Otherwise this isn't a backward compatible change (granted you're
proposing both in the same series), userspace built against 29/30
won't work against 30/30.

29/30 never validated flags, so theoretically userspace compiled
against 29/30 could have put anything in flags and it would have
worked, no longer the case here.

BTW, nice commit logs throughout this series, I probably need to read
through them a few more times to really digest it all. AIUI, the VFIO
support here is really only useful for basic userspace drivers, I don't
see how we could take advantage of it for a VM use case where the guest
manages the PASID space for a domain. Perhaps it hasn't spent enough
cycles bouncing around in my head yet. Thanks,
Alex
