That's my work. I created the jailhouse.cfg by comparing the configuration
I had in the AGL setup with the one from jailhouse-images. My goal was to
get it working on RPi4, so I might have skipped IOMMU-related stuff.
However, the configuration was working under QEMU on x86, but in the AGL
setup where it might have been set from elsewhere. I will check it with
pure Yocto and QEMU.

I haven't tested the Yocto layer on a physical (non-QEMU) machine, so
you're the pioneer here. I would generally recommend first trying to get
Jailhouse working in the jailhouse-images system to figure out the
Jailhouse stuff before using the Yocto layer. If you find out some missing
bits in the layer, let me know, I will fix that. By the way, the layer is
now on my GitHub [1] to prepare it for upstreaming. But there shouldn't be
any related difference from the one you have.

I'm not sure if the IOMMU will behave the same in QEMU and I don't have a
spare x86 machine to play with Jailhouse, so I can't test that.
