Okay. I understand that adding these APIs in iommu.c is not a good idea.
And, I also don't think merging the bounce buffer implementation into
iommu_map() is feasible since iommu_map() is not DMA API centric.

The bounce buffer implementation will eventually be part of DMA APIs
defined in dma-iommu.c, but currently those APIs are not ready for x86
use yet. So I will put them in iommu/vt-d driver for this time being and
will move them to dma-iommu.c later.

Does this work for you?

Best regards,
Lu Baolu
