+ * Upon VFIO_DEVICE_FEATURE_SET, set or clear the BUS mastering for the device
+ * based on the operation specified in op flag.
+ *
+ * The functionality is incorporated for devices that needs bus master control,
+ * but the in-band device interface lacks the support. Consequently, it is not
+ * applicable to PCI devices, as bus master control for PCI devices is managed
+ * in-band through the configuration space. At present, this feature is supported
+ * only for CDX devices.
+ * When the device's BUS MASTER setting is configured as CLEAR, it will result in
+ * blocking all incoming DMA requests from the device. On the other hand, configuring
+ * the device's BUS MASTER setting as SET (enable) will grant the device the
+ * capability to perform DMA to the host memory.
