How about we use just "iotlb"?  The IOTLB is used to store address
translation requests for devices.  The device_iotlb is kind of
misleading and we don't have to follow QEMU naming.  I would probably
change the "... device IOTLB descriptor." to something that indicates
what the IOTLB is for.  For example "... IOTLB used to cache address
translation requests from devices."

The code itself is good.
