My thinking was that the above two options are mutually exclusive with
per-CPU encoded as BIT(0) unset and single queue as set. Then other
options could still use the other bits. It's true though that the below
use of IOMMU_DMA_OPTS_PER_CPU_QUEUE is a nop so maybe just drop that?
Or we could use an enum even if I don't forsee more than these 2 queue
types.

I might but it looks like checkpatch.pl isn't a fan:
...
ERROR: trailing statements should be on next line
#119: FILE: drivers/iommu/dma-iommu.c:185:
+       else for_each_possible_cpu(cpu)

So braces it is.

True and the _percpu variant doesn't check it either so will drop.

I have no real preference we can drop it, make it an enum, a bool or
keep it. I felt like this explicit assignment documented per-CPU as the
default so see my variant below but yes it does nothing since the
cookie was already kzalloced.

I'm now experimenting with an iommu_dma_init_options() helper that gets
called from the main path of iommu_dma_init() here is how it looks like
at the end:

static void iommu_dma_init_options(struct iommu_dma_options *options, struct device *dev)
{
	/* Expensive shadowing IOTLB flushes do better with a single large queue */
	if (dev->iommu->shadow_on_flush) {
		options->flags = IOMMU_DMA_OPTS_SINGLE_QUEUE;
		options->fq_timeout = IOVA_SINGLE_FQ_TIMEOUT;
		options->fq_size = IOVA_SINGLE_FQ_SIZE;
	} else {
		options->flags = IOMMU_DMA_OPTS_PER_CPU_QUEUE;
		options->fq_size = IOVA_DEFAULT_FQ_SIZE;
		options->fq_timeout = IOVA_DEFAULT_FQ_TIMEOUT;
	}
}

Also I noticed that my options struct used the prefix "dma_iommu_"
while everything else is "iommu_dma_" so that got fixed too.
