The "device protection" you mentioned is DMA protection, right?. It's
one of IOMMU capabilities. IOMMU also provides interrupt remapping and
SVM(Shared virtual memory). I see ARM side also is pushing SVM feature
in KVM maillist for native support. Finally, it needs to support SVM in
VM and so virtual IOMMU is necessary regardless of full-virtualized or
PV IOMMU
