On the "pseries" machine the vIOMMU only has one set of translations
for a whole virtual PCI Host Bridge (vPHB). So if you attach multiple
devices to a single vPHB, I believe you'd get multiple devices in an
IOMMUContext. Well.. if we did the PASID stuff, which we don't at the
moment.
Note that on pseries on the other hand it's routine to create multiple
vPHBs, rather than multiple PCI roots being an oddity as it is on x86.
