Yep, sounds like it.

Sounds like we would need some form of an allow-list to start with so we
can have something in the interim. 

I suppose a future platform might have a facilty to ensure ATS is secure and
authenticated we could enable for all of devices in the system, in addition
to PCI CMA/IDE. 

I think having a global override to enable all devices so platform can
switch to current behavior, or maybe via a cmdline switch.. as much as we
have a billion of those, it still gives an option in case someone needs it.
