Thanks - that got me going - after some playing around with the data
structures I ended up with these patches (based on top of Jan's
vtd-intremap branch):

https://github.com/knuto/qemu/tree/vtd_patches

In essence I ended up replacing the address_spaces[] array in
IntelIOMMUState with a pointer dma_as in PCIDevice and a QLIST linking
the VTDAddressSpace objects to serve vtd_context_device_invalidate, then
use pci_bus_num() whenever a bus number is requires, except for the 
"special" bus needed by the interrupt remapping code.

To achieve this, I had to change the signature of the pci_setup_iommu
function (the first commit).

With this I am now seeing translations for the device in the virtual
root port, but I think this should work equally well with other PCI
bridges.
