Oh sorry. I'm not very familiar with iommu code (yet).
My understanding is
  iommu_domain_init() is called unconditionaly by arch_domain_create()
  so that platform_ops is initialized.
  iommu_(un)map_page() checks iommu_enabled and whether platform_ops is
  initialized. Thus iommu_(un)map_page() manipulates iommu page table
  even for PV domain.

Clearly I'm missing something important. Could you enlighten me?

thanks,
