return rte_eal_check_dma_mask(mgaw) == 0; ?
I guess that works and is more elegant.
Thanks.

The commit message doesn't explain why are we only checking a single
device. Indeed, i am not 100% clear as to why, so some explanation in
the commit message and preferably a comment in code would be more than
welcome :)
Because the pci_one_device_iommu_support_va function does always the
same whatever the device is used in the call.
So, this code was always wrong and needlessly checked each device when
it could've checked it a single time? OK, that makes it a bit clearer.
Still, needs to be documented in comments/commit message :) The commit
message IMO looks quite irrelevant to what happens in the commit. It
almost feels like this commit should be split in two - first change the
mgaw check, and then fix the PCI bus code to not check needlessly.
