Yeah.

There was a comment from Zhenzhong on the vfio_viommu_preset() here[0]. But I
was looking at that to remind myself what was it that we had to change, but even
with re-reading the thread I can't spot any flaw that needs change.

It's sort of the 'correct way' of relaxing vIOMMU checks, because you are 100%
guaranteed that the guest won't do DMA. The other outstanding thing related to
that is for older kernels which is to use the directmap for dirty page tracking,
but the moment a mapping is attempted the migration doesn't start or if it's in
progress it gets aborted[*]:

https://lore.kernel.org/qemu-devel/20230908120521.50903-1-joao.m.mart...@oracle.com/

The above link and DMA_TRANSLATION is mostly for the usecase we use that only
cares about vIOMMU for interrupt remapping only and no DMA translation services.
But we can't just disable dma-translation in qemu because it may crash older
kernels, so it supports both old and new this way.

[*] Recently I noticed you improved error reporting, so
vfio_set_migration_error(-EOPNOTSUPP) probably has a better way of getting 
there.

Right.

I derailed with other work and also stuff required for iommu dirty tracking that
I forgot about these patches, sorry.
