Re: [PATCH] iommu/dma: Handle MSI mappings separately

MSI pages must always be mapped into a device's *current* domain,

streamlining of __iommu_dma_map(), but rather than reintroduce more
complexity and/or special-casing, it turns out neater to just split 
this
path out entirely.

Since iommu_dma_get_msi_page() already duplicates much of what
__iommu_dma_map() does, it can easily just make the allocation and
mapping calls directly as well. That way we can further streamline 
the
helper back to exclusively operating on DMA domains.

Fixes: b61d271e59d7 ("iommu/dma: Move domain lookup into
__iommu_dma_{map,unmap}")

With this patch, my TX2 is back in business with a bnx2x device passed
to a guest. FWIW:
