+ * Mirroring: how to synchronize device page table with CPU page table.
+ *
+ * A device driver that is participating in HMM mirroring must always
+ * synchronize with CPU page table updates. For this, device drivers can either
+ * directly use mmu_notifier APIs or they can use the hmm_mirror API. Device
+ * drivers can decide to register one mirror per device per process, or just
+ * one mirror per process for a group of devices. The pattern is:
+ *
+ * int device_bind_address_space(..., struct mm_struct *mm, ...)
+ * {
+ * struct device_address_space *das;
+ *
+ * // Device driver specific initialization, and allocation of das
+ * // which contains an hmm_mirror struct as one of its fields.
+ * ...
+ *
+ * ret = hmm_mirror_register(&das->mirror, mm, &device_mirror_ops);
+ * if (ret) {
+ * // Cleanup on error
+ * return ret;
+ * }
+ *
+ * // Other device driver specific initialization
+ * ...
+ * }
+ *
+ * Once an hmm_mirror is registered for an address space, the device driver
+ * will get callbacks through sync_cpu_device_pagetables() operation (see
+ * hmm_mirror_ops struct).
+ *
+ * Device driver must not free the struct containing the hmm_mirror struct
+ * before calling hmm_mirror_unregister(). The expected usage is to do that when
+ * the device driver is unbinding from an address space.
+ *
+ *
+ * void device_unbind_address_space(struct device_address_space *das)
+ * {
+ * // Device driver specific cleanup
+ * ...
+ *
+ * hmm_mirror_unregister(&das->mirror);
+ *
+ * // Other device driver specific cleanup, and now das can be freed
+ * ...
+ * }
