Yeah, along with flush queues, historically this has all been
super-dodgy in terms of failure handling (or lack of).

Maybe pull the rcache init out of iova_domain_init() entirely? Only
iommu-dma uses {alloc,free}_iova_fast(), so TBH it's only a great big
waste of memory for all the other IOVA domain users anyway.

The other week I started pondering how much of iommu-dma only needs to
be exposed to the IOMMU core rather than the whole kernel now; I suppose
there's probably an equal argument to be made for some of these bits of
the IOVA API, and this might pave the way towards some more logical
separation, but let's get the functional side dealt with before we worry
too much about splitting headers.

Robin.
