Sure, it is easy to do

It would be good for viommu to come with all the uAPI changes in one
shot, so all the pt_ids should be updated to accept viommu to pass the
S2 HWPT.

Then whatever driver changes are needed to make ATS work should come
together too.

I think this is fairly minor compatability, let's see.
