Is this related to the "special bit". What would be good is a comment
next to the #define for the quirk describing *exactly* that differs in
your implementation. Without that, it's very difficult to know what is
intentional and what is actually broken.

Well, can you not control mapping permissions with the AP bits? The idea
of the IOMMU flags are:

  IOMMU_CACHE : Install a normal, cacheable mapping (you've got this right)
  IOMMU_READ : Allow read access for the device
  IOMMU_WRITE : Allow write access for the device
  IOMMU_NOEXEC : Disallow execute access for the device

so the caller to iommu_map passes in a bitmap of these, which you need to
encode in the page-table entry.

I'm still not really clear about what this is.

No. afaict, you allocate the pte table using kmem_cache_zalloc but you never
flush it. However, you update the pgd to point at this table, so the walker
can potentially see garbage instead of the zeroed entries.
