This means that by default VFIO_TYPE1_NESTING_IOMMU wwould be chosen. I
don't think this what we want. On ARM this would mean that for a
standard VFIO assignment without vIOMMU, SL will be used instead of FL.
This may not be harmless.
For instance, in "[RFC v6 09/24] vfio: Force nested if iommu requires
it", I use nested only if I detect we have a vSMMU. Otherwise I keep the
legacy VFIO_TYPE1v2_IOMMU.
