The function upstream_bridge_distance() has evolved such that it's name
is no longer entirely reflective of what the function does.

The function not only calculates the distance between two peers but also
calculates how the DMA addresses for those two peers should be mapped.

Thus, rename the function to calc_map_type_and_dist() and rework the
documentation to better describe the two pieces of information the
function returns.

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.

Yes, that's correct, if it's the same device it must be behind the same
bridge port; so dropping the "behind the same bridge port" is a good idea.

Good point. I've been casually saying "down to", but you are right "up"
makes a lot more sense given the downstream/upstream terminology.

What you've written sounds good to me, but I might have just dropped the
"behind the same bridge" entirely given your feedback above.

Thanks!
