+	  This option allows an IOMMU DMA IOTLB invalidation mode to be

+	  flush operation of IOTLB and the free operation of IOVA are deferred.
+	  They are only guaranteed to be done before the related IOVA will be
+	  reused.
+
+	  The isolation provided in this mode is not as secure as STRICT mode,
+	  such that a vulnerable time window may be created between the DMA
+	  unmap and the mappings cached in the IOMMU IOTLB or device TLB
+	  finally being invalidated, where the device could still access the
+	  memory which has already been unmapped by the device driver.
+	  However this mode may provide better performance in high throughput
+	  scenarios, and is still considerably more secure than passthrough
