That's a good point. How about instead of unconditionally returning
IOMMU_DOMAIN_DMA we just do so if the domain type returned by ops-
>def_domain_type uses a flush queue (i.e. the __IOMMU_DOMAIN_DMA_FQ bit
is set). That way a device that only supports identity mapping gets to
set that but iommu_dma_strict at least always prevents use of an IOVA
flush queue.
