Previously we had iommu_dev_has_feature() and then was cleaned up due to
lack of real users. If you have a real case for it, why not bringing it
back?

> design it as not switchable. I will modify the commit message of patch#12, thanks!

I am not sure that I fully get your point. But I can't see any gaps of
using iommu_dev_enable/disable_feature() to switch dirty log on and off.
Probably I missed anything.

This series has some improvement on the iommu_pgsize() helper.
