Just a quibble with the name, why "raw" instead of "phys"?

Is this for the case where we are bouncing back and forth between
sync/async? Otherwise I do not see how transactions could get out of
order given you allocate a channel once per queue. Flushing the async
transactions when transitioning to sync is one option. Is this
comment warning about a bug or explaining why we do the iowrite?

__pa()'s necessary here? I don't think the alignment requirements
will ever cross PAGE_OFFSET.

Neither of these txd_clear* calls should be necessary.

hmm... can this go in ntb_process_rx() so that the submission is
batched after all the async work is prepped?

You can drop "private" since this is a public allocation.

Do you need this or can you just wait for all outstanding tx / rx to quiesce?

Soon the ability to ask the driver to unmap for you will go away. You
can get ahead of the game by unmapping manually.
