It was originally based on my part 2, but I suspect it could apply
easially on top of part 2a. I don't think it is worth rebasing to
v6.9-rc since I expect Will to take 2a.

I feel part 2a is done, hopefully Will will take it soon:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-iommu/0-v8-4c4298c63951+13484-smmuv3_newapi_p2_jgg@nvidia.com/
There are quite a few distros waiting on this:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-iommu/cover.1712977210.git.nicolinc@nvidia.com/
The cmdq area is not something I've studied deeply
I will be reposting the latter half of this as a part 2b:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-iommu/0-v6-228e7adf25eb+4155-smmuv3_newapi_p2_jgg@nvidia.com/
Which is the prerequisite for the part 3 series to enable nested
translation an vSMMUv3 for iommufd.
Nested translation and a few more bits is prerequisite to finally enable BTM:
