Found out in testing that the above doesn't work for the "echo XYZ >
/sys/../iommu_group/type" interface as domain->type is not set before
calling iommu_dma_init_fq() so it would always init for DMA-SQ which is
of course the case that I used during earlier testing. I think the
easiest fix is to add a type parameter to iommu_dma_init_fq().

Here domain->type is set only after calling iommu_dma_init_fq().
