          VFIO provides a framework for secure userspace device drivers.

Why are we basing this on specific IOMMU drivers in the first place?
Only ARM is doing that.  Shouldn't IOMMU_API only be enabled for ARM
targets that support it and therefore we can forget about the specific
IOMMU drivers?  Thanks,

Makes sense - the majority of ARM systems (and mobile/embedded ARM64 ones) making use of IOMMU_API won't actually support VFIO, but it can't hurt to allow them to select the type 1 driver regardless. Especially as multiplatform configs are liable to be pulling in the SMMU driver(s) anyway.
