How about adding a flag to the fault-handler call-back that tells us
whether it wants to sleep or not. If it wants, we call it from a wq, if
not we call call it directly like we do today in the
report_iommu_fault() function.
In any case we call iommu_ops->resume() when set on completion of the
fault-handler either from the workqueue or report_iommu_fault itself.

Joerg
