Feels like we could just use  'iommu=on' as the name.

Also, I'm unclear whether we actually need the 'ats' attribute.

>From the description it sounds like if we have device_iotlb=on
for the IOMMU device, then we should have ats=on too. Is there
a  reason to use ats=off when device_iotlb=on, or vica-verca.
If not, then we should just do the right thing and set ats=on
whenever we see device_iotlb=on.
 

Regards,
Daniel
