Doing it in a single iommu_read_and_clear_dirty() saves me from manipulating the
bitmap address in an atypical way. Considering that the first bit in each u8 is
the iova we initialize the bitmap, so if I call it in multiple times in a single
IOVA range (in each individual area as I think you suggested) then I need to
align down the iova-length to the minimum granularity of the bitmap, which is an
u8 (32k).
