Scratch that, it's a stupid idea.
The problem is generating sub-libraries inside the driver
in order to map some specific compiler options with some files.
Looks like we must disable the build inside the driver:

+if not get_option('enable_iova_as_pa')
+    subdir_done()
+endif

No need to give reason or disable build as it will be done anyway in drivers/meson.build.
