This breaks backward compatibility as soon as struct
iommu_cache_invalidate_info changes size by its defined versioning
scheme. ie. a field gets added, the version is bumped, all existing
userspace breaks. Our minsz is offsetofend to the version field,
interpret the version to size, then reevaluate argsz.

How does a user respond when their cache invalidate fails? Isn't this
also another case where our for_each_dev can fail at an arbitrary point
leaving us with no idea whether each device even had the opportunity to
perform the invalidation request. I don't see how we have any chance
to maintain coherency after this faults.

Is this a necessary qualifier? A user can try to call this ioctl at
any point, it only makes sense in certain configurations, but it should
always "do the right thing" relative to the container iommu config.
Also, I don't see anything in these last few patches testing the
operating IOMMU model, what happens when a user calls them when not
using the nesting IOMMU?
Is this ioctl and the previous BIND ioctl only valid when configured
for the nesting IOMMU type?

The future extension capabilities of this ioctl worry me, I wonder if
we should do another data[] with flag defining that data as CACHE_INFO.
