I agree with Laurent. Anyway this cleanup can be taken care when we will be
doing refactoring of common code to lib/iommu-helper.c.

Anyways, if you still insist I can prepare and submit the patch. Let me know
again on this.

Ok, I've merged the patch as is and I will send pull request soon.
Please include the above discussed cleanup while refactoring common code to lib.

Best regards
