Sorry but I still don't get the point. For the device to reach the
doorbell there must be an IOMMU mapping.

- if the device is not attached to an MSI domain, there won't be any
doorbell iommu mapping built by this series, so no risk, right?

The device will be allowed to reach only memory iommu mapped by
userspace with VFIO DMA MAP standard API. Of course if the userspace can
mmap all the host PA that's a more general issue, right?

- If the device is attached to an MSI domain (msi-parent link), 2 cases:
1) the MSI controller advertises MSI isolation (ITS cases), no risk
2) the MSI controller does not advertise MSI isolation (GICv2m), there
is a security hole.
a) by default we reject the device attachment
b) if the userspace overrides the safe interrupt option he accepts
the security hole

What am I missing?

Best Regards
