Nope, it was the opposite. Maybe it was not clear enough, let me try 
once more - userspace CANNOT decouple IOTLB reset from vDPA reset today. 
This is because of bug/discrepancy in mlx5_vdap and vdpa_sim already 
breaking userspace's expectation, rendering the brokenness/inconsistency 
on vhost-vdpa mapping interface from behaving what it promised and 
should have done. Only with the IOTLB_PERSIST flag seen userspace can 
trust vhost-vdpa kernel interface *reliably* to decouple IOTLB reset 
from vDPA reset. Without seeing this flag, no matter how the code in 
QEMU was written, today's older userspace was never like to assume the 
mappings will *definitely* be cleared by vDPA reset. If any userspace 
implementation wants to get consistent behavior for all vDPA parent 
devices, it still has to *explicitly* clear all existing mappings by its 
own by sending bunch of unmap (iotlb invalidate) requests to vhost-vdpa 
kernel before resetting the vDPA backend.

In brief, userspace is already broken by kernel implementation today, 
and new userspace needs some device flag to know for sure if kernel bug 
has already been fixed; older userspace doesn't care about preserving 
the broken kernel behavior at all, regardless whether or not it wants to 
decouple IOTLB from vDPA reset.

There's no breakage on this part. Backend feature IOTLB_PERSIST won't be 
set if userspace doesn't ack.

Definitely don't have to audit every userspace program, but I cannot 
think of a case where a sane userspace program can be broken. Can you 
elaborate one or two potential userspace usage that may break because of 
this? As said, platform IOMMU already did it this way.
