What I want is consistent behavior between drivers. Until now I tried to
push for the domain concept, which allows to attach arbitrary devices to
a domain. This patch-set makes it impossible to achieve this goal,
that's why I am resistant against it.
We can discuss moving into another direction with the IOMMU-API, and
re-evaluate then if this patch-set is still required.
