The original request/explanation from Jean-Philippe can be found here:

Sure I will add a comment about this restriction.

I don't get this sentence. What about vtd IOTLB domain-selective
invalidation:
"
• IOTLB entries caching mappings associated with the specified domain-id
are invalidated.
• Paging-structure-cache entries caching mappings associated with the
specified domain-id are invalidated.
"
