I wonder whether this can take a device pointer so dev->iommu->max_pasids
is enforced inside the alloc function.

and do we even need the min/max parameters? With special pasids reserved
then what driver needs is just to get a free pasid from the global space within
dev->iommu->max_pasids constraint...

iommu_sva_alloc_pasid() can be reworked to avoid min/max by taking a
device pointer too.
