VT-d's dmar_platform_optin() actually represents a combination of properties fairly well standardised by Microsoft as "Pre-boot DMA Protection" and "Kernel DMA Protection"[1]. As such, we can provide interested consumers with an abstracted capability rather than driver-specific interfaces that won't scale. We name it for the former aspect since that's what external callers are most likely to be interested in; the latter is for the IOMMU layer to handle itself.
