The nested domain fields are exclusive to those that used for a DMA
remapping domain. Use union to avoid memory waste.

Using unions like this often devolves into a mess.

You'd be better to have more structures

struct intel_iommu_domain {
    struct iommu_domain domain;
    [general fields about attachment]
};

struct intel_iopte_domain {
     struct intel_iommu_domain domain;
     [stuff describing the io page table data, pgd, format, etc]
};

strut intel_s1_domain {
      struct intel_iommu_domain domain;
      struct dmar_domain *s2_domain;
      /* user page table pointer (in GPA) */
      unsigned long s1_pgtbl;
      /* page table attributes */
      struct iommu_hwpt_intel_vtd s1_cfg;
};
static_assert(offset_of(struct intel_s1_domain, domain.domain) ==
               offset_of(struct intel_iommu_domain, domain));

The per-domain ops allow to make this work sensibly

Yes. This will make the data structures clearer.

However, this will lead to significant code changes. I think it would be
more appropriate to put it in a separate refactoring series later.
