Actually this happens rarely on reboot. The reproducibility is of the
order of magnitude of 1/10 for me. I use a vm with vhost net device +
virtual intel iommu featuring a crontab job.
@reboot /usr/sbin/reboot

No that's a kernel vhost translate request that normally tries to find
out the translated address on kernel side in the IOTLB but since the
data is not there it ends up asking for the translation to user space ...

vtd_handle_gcmd_write/vtd_handle_gcmd_te/vtd_handle_gcmd_te which
eventually calls vhost_iommu_region_del

vhost inflight translation reaches user space through
vhost_device_iotlb_miss()
