AFAICT there is no equivalent means to specify vfio_iommu_type1.dma_entry_limit when using iommufd; looks like we'll just always get the default 65535.  Was this because you envision the limit being not applicable for iommufd (limits will be enforced via either means and eventually we won't want to ) or was it an oversight?
