I'm not sure how many types iommufd will support in reality.

Just my personal feeling that having information contained in iommufd
is cleaner than expanding iommu core abstraction to assist iommufd 
user buffer copy/verification.

that's the example for recording vendor specific structure information
in iommufd and it will also grow along with new added types.
