Ok yeah I did like the policy idea you brought up a while back. If we
want to do the conversion to dma-iommu before that we do need an
interim solution though. So if I'm reading your ops flag idea right I
think it could even re-use much of the logic in this series and just
not introduce a new domain type.

I'm wondering if maybe instead of plain flag bits it makes more sense
to have a dma_iommu_options struct that contains the queue size and a
flags value which indicates whether a single or per-CPU queue is used.
Then I could add an iommu_ops callback that takes a device and a
pointer to the dma_iommu_options. That way we can still set the options
per device but don't need a whole extra domain type. This callback
would then just be called during initialization of the DMA-FQ domain
and not having the callback just leaves the defaults unchanged. Does
that go in the right direction?

Thanks,
Niklas
