Not sure which code you are looking at, but as I see it we have only
per-device iommu-ops now (with this patch). That is different from
having core-visible hardware-iommu instances where devices could link
to.

Also the rest of iommu-core code still makes use of the per-bus ops. The
per-device ops are only used for the of_xlate fn-ptr.
