PATCH 1/1 iommu: Don't use lazy flush for untrusted device

The lazy IOTLB flushing setup leaves a time window, in which the device can still access some system memory, which has already been unmapped by the device driver. It's not suitable for untrusted devices. A malicious device might use this to attack the system by obtaining data that it shouldn't obtain.

Fixes c588072bba6b5 ("iommu/vt-d: Convert intel iommu driver to the iommu ops")
