Perhaps, but you know that by adding this hook it's only a matter of time
before we get random compatible string matches in there, so I'd rather keep
the flood gates closed as long as we can.

Given that this is a PCI device, why can't we have a PCI quirk for devices
which require an identity mapping and then handle that in the IOMMU core?

I don't know anything about Intel integrated graphics. Have they solved this
problem in a better way, or could they equally make use of a generic quirk?
