Yeah, it is pretty much nonsense, the other flushes don't fail:

	void (*flush_iotlb_all)(struct iommu_domain *domain);
	int (*iotlb_sync_map)(struct iommu_domain *domain, unsigned long iova,
			      size_t size);
	void (*iotlb_sync)(struct iommu_domain *domain,
			   struct iommu_iotlb_gather *iotlb_gather);

Given s390 does weirdly fail sync_map but not sync this needs a bigger
touch than just that.

But what I really want to do is get rid of iotlb_sync_map and replace it
with iotlb_sync, and feed the gather through the iommu_map path.

It doesn't really make sense to have a special interface for this.

So I think this patch is fine as is..
