[PATCH v2 8/8] docs: Add '-device virtio-iommu' entry


From: Jean-Philippe Brucker
Subject: [PATCH v2 8/8] docs: Add '-device virtio-iommu' entry
Date: Fri, 3 Sep 2021 16:32:09 +0200

Document the virtio-iommu device for qemu-system-x86_64. In particular
note the lack of interrupt remapping, which may be an important
limitation on x86.
