I'm not sure this should be in the iommu core, it is really gross. I would expect IDXD to keep track of the PASID's and mms it is using and do this kind of stuff itself. And why is this using access_remote_vm anyhow? If you know you are in a kthread then kthread_use_mm() is probably better anyhow. In any event we don't need a iommu_sva_find() function to wrapper xa_load for another function inside the same .c file. Jason
