It does appear that the downstream kgsl driver sets this for basically
all mappings.. well there is some conditional stuff around
DOMAIN_ATTR_USE_LLC_NWA but it seems based on the property of the
domain.  (Jordan may know more about what that is about.)  But looks
like there are a lot of different paths into iommu_map in kgsl so I
might have missed something.

Assuming there isn't some case where we specifically don't want to use
the system cache for some mapping, I think it could be a domain
attribute that sets an io_pgtable_cfg::quirks flag
