Indeed, a generic interface name is better.
The vendor iommu driver plays vendor's specific actions to start dirty log, and
Intel iommu and ARM smmu may differ. Besides, we may add more actions in ARM
smmu driver in future.
One question: Though I am not familiar with Intel iommu, I think it also should
split block mapping besides enable SLADE. Right?
