The other way of handling this would be to negate the capability and
advertise a NOEXEC cap instead. That would need the IOMMU_EXEC flag to
become IOMMU_NOEXEC and the ARM SMMU driver updating accordingly, but it
might make more sense if people don't object to mixing positive and negative
logic in the IOMMU_* flags.

Any thoughts?
