While for context cache entry flushing use of did 0 is indeed correct
(after all upon reading the context entry the IOMMU wouldn't know any
domain ID if the entry is not present, and hence a surrogate one needs
to be used), for IOTLB entries the normal domain ID (from the [present]
context entry) gets used. See sub-section "IOTLB" of section "Address
Translation Caches" in the VT-d spec.

Luckily this is supposed to be an issue only when running on emulated
IOMMUs; hardware implementations are expected to have CAP.CM=0.
