Because there is just one emulated IOMMU hardware. The limitation in this
case is not in a specific PCI device. And I do not think it is possible to
have two different (emulated or not) IOMMU hardware. Yes, you can have more
than one controller but being same IOMMU type.

If pci_one_device_iommu_support_va, because the dma check, finds out the
IOVAs are out of range, then the IOVA mode is PA and no further checks are
required. But there could be a PCI device precluding the IOVA VA, so all
the PCI devices need to be processed.
