I suppose we could come up with additional properties to mark such
memory regions and skip them here.

One other alternative might be to make sure that the driver claims
the memory regions that have been mapped and then tells the IOMMU to
undo the mappings for them. That way the driver could set up the new
mappings, reprogram the hardware and then have the old mappings torn
down. I'm not sure that could always be done in a race-free way. For
example, what if the new mappings need to be in a region, such as a
private CMA carveout, that's already mapped. Can we temporarily map
one physical address to two DMA addresses?

The details here probably depend on the IOMMU hardware.
