Add def_domain_type implementation op and override default IOMMU domain Kconfig option (CONFIG_IOMMU_DEFAULT_PASSTHROUGH=y), which could be enabled on some distros. The current quirk has been done for Tegra234 machine, because I found the issue on it. The issue itself appears on USB host controller which cannot be initialized without IOMMU translation. Something more, we proved that IOMMU translation is needed for display and GPU drivers as well. I evaluated few possible options to solve that: a) select default IOMMU domain from .def_domain_type op b) Unset CONFIG_IOMMU_DEFAULT_PASSTHROUGH=n c) add iommu.passthrough=0 on the kernel cmdline d) firmware - ACPI / DT a) This option is implemented in the proposed patch. b) Since that the community has agreed that pass-through is preferred as a default IOMMU domain option because this will avoid performance impacts on some of the platforms [1]. On the other side we have examples where you cannot even install Linux distribution on a machine where the storage media cannot be detected and the system just hangs. c) - This option involves installer's knowledge of platforms/devices which needs IOMMU translations. d) - IORT ACPI table / DT - I'm not sure is that option even possible but firmware looks like a good place for such. Please, treat this as an RFC and a call for proper solution.
