Looking at uapi/linux/iommu.h:
* Invalidations by %IOMMU_INV_GRANU_DOMAIN don't take any argument other than
* @version and @cache.
Although intel-iommu handles only PASID-related invalidation now, I
suppose other vendors (or future usages?) may allow non-pasid
based invalidation too based on above comment.
Thanks
Kevin
