To: pve-devel
Since QEMU 9.2 [0], the default I/O address space bit width was raised
from 39 bits to 48 bits for the Intel vIOMMU driver, which makes the
aw-bits check introduced in [1] to trip for host CPUs with less than 48
bits physical address width from QEMU 9.2 onwards:
vfio 0000:XX:YY.Z: Failed to set vIOMMU: aw-bits 48 > host aw-bits 39
For VFIO devices where a vIOMMU is in-use, QEMU fetches the IOVA ranges
with the iommufd ioctl IOMMU_IOAS_IOVA_RANGES or the vfio_iommu_type1's
VFIO_IOMMU_TYPE1_INFO_CAP_IOVA_RANGE info, so 'phys-bits' doesn't change
the behavior of the check.
Therefore, expose the 'aw-bits' option of the intel-iommu and
virtio-iommu QEMU drivers to allow users to set the value.
[0] qemu ddd84fd0c1 ("intel_iommu: Set default aw_bits to 48 starting from QEMU 9.2")
[1] qemu 77f6efc0ab ("intel_iommu: Check compatibility with host IOMMU capabilities")

changes from v2:
- changed quotes from qemu-devel lore to upstream qemu commits
- added die when aw-bits is set without viommu
- added test case for aw-bits without viommu
