We now only use IOMMU_HWPT_ALLOC for nested domain allocations,
which won't be supported until the cache_invalidate_user ops is
preset?

/* e.g. the following piece is in iommufd_user_managed_hwpt_alloc */

+       /* Driver is buggy by missing cache_invalidate_user in domain_ops */
+       if (WARN_ON_ONCE(!hwpt->domain->ops->cache_invalidate_user)) {
+               rc = -EINVAL;
+               goto out_abort;
+       }

Thanks
