Add a bootup option to make the system manager can choose which mode to
be used. The default mode is strict.

This text needs help. How about something like:

	0 - strict mode, default.
	    Invalidate the TLB of the IOMMU hardware as part of every
	    unmap() operation.
	1 - lazy mode.
	    Defer TLB invalidation so that the TLB of the IOMMU hardware
	    is invalidated periodically, rather than as part of every
	    unmap() operation.

(generally, I think I'd s/non strict/lazy/ in this patch to avoid the double
negatives)

Hmm, not sure about this message either and tainting is probably over the
top. Maybe drop the taint and just pr_info something like "IOMMU DMA ops
using lazy TLB invalidation: unable to protect against malicious devices"

Hmm, I don't think we can guarantee that we're working with the DMA domain
here. Does this all fall out in the wash for the identity domain?

Indeed so - for one, I expect drivers to reject it for anything that 
isn't their own default DMA ops domain type (as #5 and #6 do), and 
furthermore it only has any effect once iommu_dma_init_domain() reads it 
back if it stuck, and other domain types should never be getting passed 
into there anyway.
