I ran some tests with a gigabit ethernet adapter to get an idea of how
this performs in comparison to using lazy iommu mode ("non-strict"):

		6.6	6.6-lazy	6.6-dpu		6.6-dpu-lazy
iperf3 recv	114	941		941		941		MBit/s
iperf3 send	124	891		703		940		MBit/s

scp recv	14.6	110		110		111		MB/s
scp send	12.5	98.9		91.5		110		MB/s

This patch in itself indeed improves things quite a bit, but there is
still some performance that can be gained by using lazy iommu mode.

Notably, lazy mode with this patch applied appears to saturate the link
in both directions.
