First, you agreed that VINTF=vIOMMU, then "total number of VINTFs per vIOMMU" doesn't make sense as it's fixed to 1 in concept. Then, each VM can only get one VINTF/vIOMMU per SMMU instance, and this ioctl is per SMMU instance. This also implies that only one VINTF can be reported in the ioctl. In multi-VINTF case, the VM should get 1VINTF per ioctl from each SMMU backing passthrough devices.
