I agree it does the job now. However it looks a bit strange to do a
PASID based invalidation in my case - SMMUv3 nested stage - where I
don't have any PASID involved.

Couldn't we call it context based invalidation then? A context can be
tagged by a PASID or/and an ARCHID.

Domain invalidation would invalidate all the contexts belonging to that
domain.

Thanks
