It is wrong for the driver to even ask this question.

Domains, regardless of what they are, get attached to PASIDs. Maybe
many PASIDs, driver doesn't get to care. SVA isn't special. Stop
making it special.

The driver should rely on there being exactly one iommu_domain for SVA
per mm so it can hang the mm_notifier off the iommu_domain

But otherwise invalidation for a SVA domain should be *exactly the
same flow* as invalidation for a paging domain. It iterates over the
attachments and generates the correct list of PASIDs and ATCs.
