It is not very nice that both the iommu drivers have to duplicate the
code to read the pasid capability out of the PCI device.

IMHO it would make more sense for the iommu layer to report the
capability of its own HW block only, and for the core code to figure
out the master's limitation using a bus-specific approach.

It is also unfortunate that the enable/disable pasid is inside the
iommu driver as well - ideally the PCI driver itself would do this
when it knows it wants to use PASIDs.

The ordering interaction with ATS makes this look quite annoying
though. :(

I'm also not convinced individual IOMMU drivers should be forcing ATS
on, there are performance and functional implications here. Using ATS
or not is possibly best left as an administrator policy controlled by
the core code. Again we seem to have some mess.
