Yes.

That could be possible.  For hot-plug, you can simply forbid hotplugging
with direct-ram-access=on.  If you want hotplug, then we should add the
direct-ram-access property to PCI bridges too (with the same limitation
on hotplug).  All devices under such a bridge would be outside the
IOMMU, including virtio devices with direct-ram-access=off.
