Or do we need support this cmd at all?

For vt-d we always implicitly invalidate ATC following a iotlb invalidation
request from userspace. Then vIOMMU just treats it as a nop in the
virtual queue.

IMHO a sane iommu driver should always invalidate both iotlb and atc
together. I'm not sure a valid usage where iotlb is invalidated while
atc is left with some stale mappings.
