Hi Mika,

This sentence doesn't make sense to me.  There's no logical connection
between having an IOMMU and having a Thunderbolt port.

Nor this one.  The platform only uses the IOMMU to prevent DMA attacks
if the OS chooses to do that.

There's no standard that requires this, so the best we can say is that
a system BIOS *may* mark externally facing ports with this mechanism.

I think it would make sense to say something like:

  A malicious PCI device may use DMA to attack the system.  An
  external Thunderbolt port is a convenient point to attach such a
  device.  The OS may use an IOMMU to defend against DMA attacks.

  Some BIOSes mark externally facing Root Ports with the this ACPI
  _DSD:

    ...

  If we find such a Root Port, mark it and all its children as
  "is_untrusted".  The rest of the OS may use this to prevent use of
  the device unless we have an IOMMU to prevent malicious DMA [I don't
  know your actual policy yet].

Simpler to parse:

  if (val)
    dev->is_untrusted = 1;

In what circumstance is this loop needed?  I expected this would be
sufficient:

  bridge = pci_upstream_bridge(dev);
  if (bridge && bridge->is_untrusted)
    dev->is_untrusted = true;

We have a mix of "is_X" and "X", but I think "untrusted" is sufficient
since "untrusted" is a perfectly good predicate all by itself, i.e.,

  if (dev->untrusted)

reads easily and makes good sense.
