When you iterate on this, pay attention to things like:

- Wrap paragraphs to 75 columns or so, so they fill the whole line
but don't overflow when "git show" adds 4 spaces.

- Leave a blank line between paragraphs.

- Capitalize consistently: "SMMU", "PCI", "TLP".

- Provide references to relevant spec sections, e.g., for the SMMU
stall feature.

No. This would mean we might enable PASID on actual PCIe devices when
it is not safe to do so, as Jean-Philippe pointed out.

You cannot break actual PCIe devices just to make your non-PCIe device
work.

These devices do not support PASID as defined in the PCIe spec. They
might support something *like* PASID, and you might be able to make
parts of the PCI core work with them, but you're going to have to deal
with the parts that don't follow the PCIe spec on your own. That
might be quirks, it might be some sort of AMBA adaptation shim, I
don't know. But it's not the responsibility of the PCI core to adapt
to them.
