How can an IOMMU know what a sensible value is for grow size? I can only think of two cases: (1) Growing is not permitted at all (0 in your current API) (2) Growing is permitted up to the maximum input address size of the IOMMU. Maybe the latter should be probable, rather than waiting to get -ERANGE from iommu_map? Actually, if we assume that the DMA master can't master a wider address range the its IOMMU, then we could construct the grow_size from the base and the dma mask already.
