As I've been rebasing my work onto your series, I have a few more comments
about this structure. Is there any advantage in limiting the PRGI as a
bitfield? PCI uses 9 bits, but others might need more. For instance ARM
Stall uses 16-bit IDs to identify a fault event.

Could you please make it a u32 (as well as in page_response_msg), and
could page_req_group_id be renamed to simply "id"?

I noticed that page_response_msg in patch 15/16 calls this bit
"pasid_present". Could you rename it to "pasid_valid" for consistency?

Thanks,
Jean
