Oh, that's not it at all. I think you get it, but just to be really
clear:

This code is taking a physical address from the exporter and
determining how it MUST route inside the fabric. There is only one
single choice with no optionality.

The exporter already decided if it will go over the host bridge by
providing an address that must use a host bridge path.

Yes, the exporter needs to decide where the data is placed before it
tries to map it into the SGT.
