iommu-priv.h should be private to the core iommu code, and we sort of
extended it to iommufd as well.

iommu-driver.h would be "private" to the core and all the drivers
only.

As include ../.. is often frown on at large scale it is probably
better to be in include/linux

There is always a type though? I haven't got that far in the series
yet to see..
