That's the 1st option.

Both DMA_ATTR_READ_ONLY and IOMMU_READ are just logical bit in their
layers respectively and eventually it's converted to H/W dependent
bit.

If IOMMU is considered as one of specific case of DMA, sharing
dma_attr between IOMMU and DMA may not be so bad. IIRC, ARM:
dma-mapping API was implemented based on this concept(?).
