There is code to fail the attaching for device with RMRR in intel iommu driver,
do we plan to remove below check for IOMMUFD soon or later?

static int intel_iommu_attach_device(struct iommu_domain *domain,
struct device *dev)
{
struct device_domain_info *info = dev_iommu_priv_get(dev);
int ret;

if (domain->type == IOMMU_DOMAIN_UNMANAGED &&
device_is_rmrr_locked(dev)) {
dev_warn(dev, "Device is ineligible for IOMMU domain attach due to platform RMRR requirement. Contact your platform vendor.\n");
return -EPERM;
}

Thanks
