[RFC][PATCH] Remove bus dependency for iommu_domain_alloc.

2014-01-17 Thread Varun Sethi
This patch attempts to remove iommu_domain_alloc function's dependency on the bus type. This dependency is quiet restrictive in case of vfio, where it's possible to bind multiple iommu groups (from different bus types) to the same iommu domain. This patch is based on the assumption, that there i
