We only need the one loop to find the dirty vma flush them, and their
chipset.

Is the story with iomap to just avoid fragility and
go with the same path, even if the flushes would be
superfluous?

The subtle difference between the two loops is the first is just
flushing anything the user had their hands on, and the second anything
the kernel was doing for itself.

I don't think it's that simple.

For userspace to invoke this function, it has called a set-domain ioctl.
So it should equally be marking its write with a set-domain ioctl for
set-domain to even work. At which point, we might as well just say that
this can only work if userspace does its due diligence in using
set-domain or userspace has to care about the CPU caches itself.

So given that userspace has to take care anyway, I don't see any harm
here in skipping the flushes if we have not marked them as dirty. Now,
having said that, we should then be marking all the ggtt as dirty for a
set-domain ggtt write...
