Yes your suggested approach makes sense to me.

One reason why I proceeded that way is we are mixing things at iommu.h
level too. Personally I would have preferred to separate things:
1) add a new IOMMU_CAP_TRANSLATE_MSI capability in iommu_cap
2) rename iommu_msi_supported into "programmable" bool: reporting
whether the aperture is reserved or programmable.

In the early releases I think it was as above but slightly we moved to a
mixed description.

What do you think?

Thank you for the whole review!
