I have ever thought about this solution and gave up in the end due to
the locking issue.

A batch of qi requests must be handled in the spin lock critical region
to enforce that only one batch of requests is submitted at a time.
Searching pci_dev in this locking region might result in nested locking
issues, and I haven't found a good solution for this yet.

Unless someone can bring up a better solution, perhaps we have to live
in a world where only single device TLB invalidation request in a batch
could be submitted to the queue.

Best regards,
baolu
