I found something related with this in a presentation done at the 2008 KVM Forum called 1-1 mapping and a patch for this at http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.emulators.kvm.devel/18722/focus=18753. I am wondering if this is included or are there plans to include it in the latest KVM version?

pursue it.
If anyone would like to nurture these patches he is more than welcome.
ps: you also have pv-dma option for Linux guests (same status though).
As time goes by most host will have either vt-d or amd iommu.
