if I re-spin this, was their a reason not to just use bitfields, ie:

-    bool suppress_bind_attrs;    /* disables bind/unbind via sysfs */
+    bool suppress_bind_attrs : 1;    /* disables bind/unbind via sysfs */
+    bool has_own_iommu_manager : 1;  /* driver explictly manages IOMMU */

That seems like it would have been a bit less churn and a bit nicer
looking (IMO at least)
