[PATCH 3/5] iommu/vt-d: Preset A/D bits for user space DMA usage

From: Lu Baolu
Date: Mon Jul 19 2021 - 21:46:23 EST


We preset the access and dirty bits for IOVA over first level usage only
for the kernel DMA (i.e., when domain type is IOMMU_DOMAIN_DMA). We should
also preset the FL A/D for user space DMA usage. The idea is that even the
user space A/D bit memory write is unnecessary. We should avoid it to
minimize the overhead.
