I'd prefer not.  At the vfio user API level, the question is whether
the user can mmap over the msix table, testing a property/ioctl on the
iommu driver seems like an odd way to discover that.  We should be
determining whether that's safe in the kernel and exporting that info
on the vfio device itself, where it seems like we have various ways we
could do this within the existing ioctls.  Thanks,

Alex
