We can only provide isolation if DMA is forced through the IOMMU aperture. Don't allow type1 to be used if this is not the case. Signed-off-by: Alex Williamson <alex.williamson@xxxxxxxxxx> --- Eric, I see a number of IOMMU drivers enable this, do the ones you care about for ARM set geometry.force_aperture?
