> Memory accesses must go through the IOMMU layer.

No. Devices should not know or care whether an IOMMU is present.

You should be adding a DeviceState argument to cpu_physical_memory_{rw,map}. 
This should then handle IOMMU translation transparently.

You also need to accomodate the the case where multiple IOMMU are present.
