It should fail, since we're reserving PASID 0 for non-PASID transactions
with S1DSS=0b10. In addition, the SMMUv3 specification does not allow
using PASID with a single entry. See the description of S1CDMax in 5.2
Stream Table Entry:

"when this field is 0, the substreams of the STE are disabled and one CD
is available. (The minimum useful number of substreams is 2.) Any
transaction with a SubstreamID will be terminated with an abort and a
C_BAD_SUBSTREAMID event recorded."

Yes, idr provides a convenient way to quickly retrieve the context
associated with a PASID, when handling a fault. v1 had the allocation in a
bitmap and storing in a rb-tree. By using an idr we combine both and rely
on a well-tested infrastructure.

Note that in the future we might need to go back to handcrafting the PASID
allocation, but it will probably still be based on idr.

Thanks,
Jean
