According to the conversation in the following link: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-iommu/20231020135501.GG3952@nvidia.com/ The enforce_cache_coherency should be set/enforced in the hwpt allocation routine. The iommu driver in its attach_dev() op should decide whether to reject or not a device that doesn't match with the configuration of cache coherency. Drop the enforce_cache_coherency piece in the attach/replace() and move the remaining "num_devices" piece closer to the refcount that is using it. Accordingly drop its function prototype in the header and mark it static. Also add some extra comments to clarify the expected behaviors.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
