There is an API for that, the IOMMU driver can return IOVA reserved
regions per device and the IOMMU core code will take care of mapping
these regions and reserving them in the IOVA allocator, so that
DMA-IOMMU code will not use it for allocations.

Have a look at the iommu_ops->get_resv_regions() and
iommu_ops->put_resv_regions().
