+ Current Graphics drivers tend to use physical address
+ for DMA and avoid using DMA APIs. Setting this config
+ option permits the IOMMU driver to set a unity map for
+ all the OS-visible memory. Hence the driver can continue
+ to use physical addresses for DMA, at least until this
+ option is removed in the 2.6.32 kernel.
