There is ongoing work to use the generic IOMMU_DMA ops on X86. AMD IOMMU
has been converted recently [1] but VT-d still implements its own DMA ops
(conversion patches are on the list [2]). On Arm the arch Kconfig selects
IOMMU_DMA, and I assume we'll have the same on X86 once Tom's work is
complete. Until then I can add a "if X86" here for clarity.

Thanks,
Jean
