Might be nice to add a bit more "meat" to the commit message.

One other thing that wasn't 100% from the qemu patches - is there a
specific need to ensure the "-device intel-iommu" is placed on the
command line prior to any PCI device being placed there as well?

It's that same snippet I pulled from review of patch 1:

"The device is part of the machine properties because we wanted
to ensure is created before any other PCI device."

But qemu patch 5/5 removes iommu from the machine command line, so I'm
left wondering if there isn't some assumption that the -device option
will need to be generated before any other PCI device.

I only mention this because if that's the case, then I think we need to
add some comments prior to calling qemuBuildIOMMUCommandLine to indicate
that placement for the "-device intel-iommu" must be done before other
PCI devices. I realize there's a general feeling against too many
comments; however, it might avoid having some bug creep in because
someone didn't know or follow a bz link or a qemu doc link from a commit
message...

Alternatively if the XML implementation becomes a hypervisor feature,
then qemuBuildBootCommandLine could add the option.

That also provides a way to have "either" 'iommu=on' or 'device
intel-iommu' be generated with "-machine" or after machine is created to
help hide or ensure future generations don't erroneously move things.

Obviously this would need adjustment if you changed the model...
