In the patch ("drivers: base: Add bits to struct device to control
iommu strictness") we add the ability for devices to tell us about
their IOMMU strictness requirements. Let's now take that into account
in the IOMMU layer.

A few notes here:
* Presumably this is always how iommu_get_dma_strict() was intended to
behave. Had this not been the intention then it never would have
taken a domain as a parameter.

FWIW strictness does have the semantic of being a per-domain property, but mostly in the sense that it's only relevant to IOMMU_DOMAIN_DMA domains, so the main thing was encapsulating that check rather than duplicating it all over callsites.

* The iommu_set_dma_strict() feels awfully non-symmetric now. That
function sets the _default_ strictness globally in the system
whereas iommu_get_dma_strict() returns the value for a given domain
(falling back to the default). Presumably, at least, the fact that
iommu_set_dma_strict() doesn't take a domain makes this obvious.

It *is* asymmetric - one is for IOMMU core code and individual driver internals to know whether they need to do whatever bits of setting up a flush queue for a given domain they are responsible for, while the other is specifically for two drivers to force the global default in order to preserve legacy driver-specific behaviour. Maybe that should have been called something like iommu_set_dma_default_strict instead... :/

Robin.

The function iommu_get_dma_strict() should now make it super obvious
where strictness comes from and who overides who. Though the function
changed a bunch to make the logic clearer, the only two new rules
should be:
* Devices can force strictness for themselves, overriding the cmdline
"iommu.strict=0" or a call to iommu_set_dma_strict(false)).
* Devices can request non-strictness for themselves, assuming there
was no cmdline "iommu.strict=1" or a call to
iommu_set_dma_strict(true).
