Not used. A copy-n-paste mistake :(

Hmm, that's something "missing" even in the current design.

Yet, most of the TLBI commands don't hold an SID field. So,
the hypervisor only trapping a queue write-pointer movement
cannot get the exact vSID for a TLBI command. What our QEMU
code currently does is simply broadcasting all the devices
on the list of attaching devices to the vSMMU, which means
that such an enforcement in the kernel would basically just
allow any vSID (device) that's attached to the domain?

Thanks
Nic
