iommu_copy_struct_from_user()?

btw given the confusion raised on how this would be used is it clearer
to move it to the patch together with the 1st user?

sure. How about your opinion? @Nic.


after a second thinking, the first user of this helper is the patch to
extend mock iommu driver. Is it suitable to introduce a common API together
with selftest code?
