After commit fcf463b92a08 ("types: move phys_vec definition to common header"), we can use the shared phys_vec type instead of the DMABUF‑specific dma_buf_phys_vec, which duplicated the same structure and semantics.

Alex,
According to diffstat, VFIO is the subsystem with the largest set of changes, so it would be great if you could take it through your tree.
The series is based on the for-7.0/blk-pvec shared branch from Jens: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/axboe/linux.git/log/?h=for-7...
Thanks
Alex,
Could you please move this patch forward? We have the RDMA series [1] that depends on this rename, and I would like to base it on the shared branch.

I tried to ping Jens regarding why the branch with this code hasn't been merged into their for-next branch, maybe you have more traction.
It is in block/for-next now, commit df73d3c618b4 ("Merge branch 'for-7.0/blk-pvec' into for-7.0/block".
Thanks
Thanks,
Alex
