Exporting a symbol without using it is meaningless. It is better to
export and use it in a single series.

Additionally, there is a restriction on the use of this helper. Calling
it after the iommu probe has no effect.

Which modules? The only reason these functions are public at all is to 
support the legacy x86 command-line options. No *new* code outside the 
core API should have any reason to be messing with core API policy. If 
an IOMMU driver needs to special-case particular devices we have 
.def_domain_type for that.

Thanks,
Robin.
