If think in this case we still need to check the X86_VA_WIDTH, i.e.
if (mgaw < X86_VA_WIDTH && !rte_eal_check_dma_mask(mgaw))

Not sure why this change? Why do we only need to check one device on the 
bus?

In addition, if this is what was intended, rather than a variable you 
can return true in this case, or did you intended to clear the 
iommu_dma_mask_check_done on every PCI BUS iteration?
