I think the commit log is saying that if a device comes along that
can't support this, we'd quirk the init path to return -EOPNOTSUPP for
that particular device here.  This path is currently used when
!CONFIG_PCI_P2PDMA to make this error non-fatal to the device init.

I don't see a regression if such a device comes along and while we
could survive other types of failures by disabling p2pdma here, I think
all such cases are sufficient rare out of memory cases to consider them
catastrophic.  Thanks,

Alex
