Yikes it is really busted, I think I fixed it?

vfio_device_is_noiommu() embeds the IS_ENABLED

The require test is this from the group code:

 	if (!device_iommu_capable(dev, IOMMU_CAP_CACHE_COHERENCY)) {

We could lift it out of the group code and call it from vfio_main.c like:

if (type == VFIO_IOMMU && !vfio_device_is_noiommu(vdev) && !device_iommu_capable(dev,
     IOMMU_CAP_CACHE_COHERENCY))
   FAIL
