[PATCH v5 2/6] iommu: add build options corresponding to iommu.dma_mode

Tue Apr 9 22:53:04 AEST 2019


First, add build option IOMMU_DEFAULT_{LAZY|STRICT}, so that we have the
opportunity to set {lazy|strict} mode as default at build time. Then put
the three config options in an choice, make people can only choose one of
the three at a time, the same to the boot options iommu.dma_mode.
