Okay, so when CONFIG_IOMMU_DMA is enabled, you only support allocation
of DMA domains, not UNMANAGED domains anymore. Is there a reason for
that?

You can reduce the #ifdef'ed coded by supporting both types of domains
and call into allocation-subfunctions for DMA and UNMANAGED domains. The
#ifdef could then only let the dma-allocation function return NULL.

This would be much more compatible to what other IOMMU drivers do and
will allow VFIO usage in the future.
