It is true that our implementations don't do anything with prefetch 
commands so far, however this is a valid architectural behaviour, and 
the intent of the quirk is really for buggy implementations where the 
commands erroneously fault.

TBH if saving cycles in arm_smmu_attach_dev() matters to you, then 
you're probably not going to like what's now queued in next that makes 
it absurdly overcomplicated with loads of indirect function calls...

Thanks,
Robin.
