This patch converts iova.c into a library, moving it from
drivers/iommu/ to lib/, and exports its virtual address allocation and
management functions so that other modules can reuse them.

Where is this going to be used outside of the IOMMU world?
...and how does it relate to the patches from Sakari (+CC) doing much
the same thing[1]?
Having gone and fished out the main LKML thread ([2], to help anyone
else missing it), I don't see any obvious dependency on the Intel IOMMU
driver - what happens here if that is compiled out and hasn't called
iommu_iova_cache_init() first?
