I was trying to follow the pattern of the other two macros that
asks for driver-level structure. But it seems not necessary, as
we have iommufd_hw_queue_alloc taking the core-level viommu..

OK.

Hmm, I was trying to follow your remarks:
"This needs to validate that vm_pgoff is at the start of the immap"
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250515164717.GL382960@nvidia.com/

I also added a selftest coverage for this check.

Thanks
