I'm struggling to find the connection between this topic and the new pci
instructions. Can you please explain in more detail?

Right virtio-ccw is another problem, but at least there we don't have the
need to limit ourselves to a very specific set of instructions (for
accessing memory).

zPCI i.e. virtio-pci on z should require much less dedicated love if any
at all. Unfortunately I'm not very knowledgeable on either PCI in general
or its s390 variant.

Documentation/filesystems/dax.txt even mentions dcssblk: s390 dcss block
device driver as a source of inspiration. So I suppose it does work.
