No, as Michel also wrote that is nothing a system administrator should 
decide about.

There are simply to many cases where this won't work as intended.

But as a start to improve the check you could take a look at 
adev->dev->iommu_group.

If that is set to something then IOMMU should be active for our device 
and we can skip the DMA coherent allocator.

Christian.
