The new text is:

If there are two virtual functions of the same device behind the same
bridge port then PCI_P2PDMA_MAP_BUS_ADDR and a distance of 2 will be
returned (one step down to the PCIe switch, then one step back to the
same device).

I *think* this includes two functions of the same multi-function
device, or two virtual functions of the same device, right? In both
cases, the two devices are obviously behind the same bridge port.

Is this usage of "down to the PCIe switch" the common usage in P2PDMA?
I normally think of going from an endpoint to a switch as being "up"
toward the CPU. But PCIe made it all confusing by putting downstream
ports at the upstream end of links and vice versa.

We also have a bit of a mix in terminology between "bridge," "switch,"
"bridge port." I'd probably write something like:

If they are two functions of the same device behind the same bridge,
return PCI_P2PDMA_MAP_BUS_ADDR and a distance of 2 (one hop up to
the bridge, then one hop back down to another function of the same
device).

No need to repost for this; just let me know what you think and I can
tweak accordingly.
