got you. so even VFIO sets DOMAIN_ATTR_NESTING successfully, it doesn't mean
the nesting will be used. yeah, it's a little bit different with VT-d side. intel iommu
driver will fail ATT_NESTING setting if it found not all iommu units in the system
are nesting capable.

got you. I think it works. So far, I didn't see any getter for ATTR_NESTING, once
SMMU drivers return empty struct iommu_nesting_info, VFIO won't fail. will
do it when switching to reuse ATTR_NESTING for getting nesting info.

format will be the same with the definition of @format in iommu_gpasid_bind_data.
flags is reserved for future extension. will add description in next version. :-)

struct iommu_gpasid_bind_data {
        __u32 argsz;
#define IOMMU_GPASID_BIND_VERSION_1     1
        __u32 version;
#define IOMMU_PASID_FORMAT_INTEL_VTD    1
        __u32 format;
#define IOMMU_SVA_GPASID_VAL    (1 << 0) /* guest PASID valid */
        __u64 flags;
        __u64 gpgd;
        __u64 hpasid;
        __u64 gpasid;
        __u32 addr_width;
        __u8  padding[12];
        /* Vendor specific data */
        union {
                struct iommu_gpasid_bind_data_vtd vtd;
        } vendor;
};
