Can you add some more information why we would want this and how the 
backend can do "better" things with the size at hand?

Note that I was not CCed on the cover letter.

With size information, IOMMU can reject a memory access which is patially in 
valid region.

Currently translation function limit memory access size with a mask, so the 
valid part of access will success. My target is to detect partially hit and 
reject whole access. Translation function cannot detect partially hit because 
it lacks size information.

Thanks; please add some of that to the patch description.
