I really do not understand this naming scheme.
The "A" of IOVA means Address. So "addr" in iovaaddr is redundant.

It seems that IOVA is a too much famous acronym to avoid it.
Unfortunately, there is no justification in the commit message.
For the record, my preference was "IO address".

We could at least add an underscore in iova_addr.

But I will apply it as is because nobody else complained.
