It appears that the reason verification-needed-focal is applied here is
because these patches were included in the linux-intel flavor, whose
description says "A kernel image for Intel IOTG devices." I'm not sure
what the expectations are for verifying bugs with that flavor - should
they all be done on the target hardware? If so, I do not have access to
the hardware to do so.

For this specific issue, I'll go ahead and mark verified with the
following justification:

 (1) The only consumer of the IB Peer Memory interface at this time is
the nvidia driver stack, and we do not appear to provide pre-compiled
nvidia drivers for the -intel flavor at this time. Now, a user could
install an nvidia-dkms package and build their own modules but,

 (2) This appears to be the first version of linux-intel in the focal
series, so it can not possibly be a regression against an earlier
version.
