Where exactly (it is rather SPAPR_TCE_IOMMU but does not really matter)?
Select it on KVM_BOOK3S_64? CONFIG_KVM_BOOK3S_64_HV?
CONFIG_KVM_BOOK3S_64_PR? PPC_BOOK3S_64?
I am trying to imagine a configuration where we really do not want
IOMMU_API. Ben mentioned PPC32 and embedded PPC64 and that's it so any of
BOOK3S (KVM_BOOK3S_64 is the best) should be fine, no?
