Nice! Thanks for working on this. I have the patch at the end of this
email to get virtio-scsi-pci and virtio-blk-pci working in a secure
guest.

I applied your patch and reverted my patch and unfortunately the guest
hangs right after mounting the disk:

Sorry, I don't have any information on where the guest is stuck. I tried
<sysrq>+l, <sysrq>+t and <sysrq>+w but nothing out of the ordinary
showed up. Will try something else later.

Subject: [PATCH 1/1] powerpc/pseries/iommu: Don't use dma_iommu_ops on secure
 guests

Secure guest memory is inacessible to devices so regular DMA isn't
possible.

In that case set devices' dma_map_ops to NULL so that the generic
DMA code path will use SWIOTLB and DMA to bounce buffers.
