Hi Rafal,

sorry for not responding before. The set makes a lot more sense to me now.
However, just one more question? If igb_uio is passed the flag to make
mappings wc, what happens if you have a mix of drivers that support or
don't support wc at the driver, not the hardware level. For example,
support there is one ena adapter and one i40e adapter. The hardware on both
should be mappable as WC, but one driver can use that, the other can't. How
is it handled?
