This causes a merge conflict with a48ce36e2786f ("iommu: Prevent
RESV_DIRECT devices from blocking domains"), The resolution is trivial
though in that shadow_on_flush:1 can just be added after (or before)
require_direct:1. @Joro do you want me to sent a version with this
resolution regardless or will you resolve this when applying?
