[PATCH 4/5] vfio: Allow No-IOMMU mode for IOMMUs with bypass capability

Show all headers | View raw

Not allowing No-IOMMU mode for devices already having
iommu_ops on their bus is little conservative.

We now have IOMMU (such as ARM SMMU) which can bypass
transcations for which IOMMU domain is not configured
hence No-IOMMU mode should not be allowed when iommu_ops
are available and IOMMU_CAP_BYPASS is not available.
