Way less problems than not having struct page for doing anything
non-trivial.  If you map the BAR to userspace with remap_pfn_range
and friends the mapping is indeed very simple.  But any operation
that expects a page structure, which is at least everything using
get_user_pages won't work.

So you can't do direct I/O to your remapped BAR, you can't create MRs
on it, etc, etc.
