[PATCH 1/5] iommu: Add capability IOMMU_CAP_BYPASS

From: Anup Patel <hidden>
Date: 2017-07-19 09:34:53
Also in: kvm, linux-iommu, lkml
Subsystem: iommu subsystem, the rest · Maintainers: Joerg Roedel, Will Deacon, Linus Torvalds

Some of the IOMMUs (such as ARM SMMU) are capable of bypassing
transactions for which no IOMMU domain is configured.

This patch adds IOMMU_CAP_BYPASS which can be used by IOMMU
drivers to advertise transation bypass capability of an IOMMU.
