I still think this doesn't belong anywhere near io-pgtable at all. It's a driver-internal decision how exactly it implements a non-leaf invalidation, and that may be more complex than a predetermined boolean decision. For example, I've just realised for SMMUv3 we can't invalidate multiple levels of table at once with a range command, since if we assume the whole thing is mapped at worst-case page granularity we may fail to invalidate any parts which are mapped as intermediate-level blocks. If invalidating a 1GB region (with 4KB granule) means having to fall back to 256K non-range commands, we may not want to invalidate by VA then, even though doing so for a 2MB region is still optimal.

It's also quite feasible that drivers might want to do this for leaf invalidations too - if you don't like issuing 512 commands to invalidate 2MB, do you like issuing 511 commands to invalidate 2044KB? - and at that point the logic really has to be in the driver anyway.

Robin.
