Thinking on this more, any API for enable/disable pasid would be
internal-only, so therefore would not be subject to ABI/API change rules
AFAIK. This gives us more freedom to change it as more discovery
capabilities become available.
Therefore, an initial version of the function can take the offset as
parameter, and we can update it without API/ABI concerns later. I was
previously worried about trying to get the API correct first time, but for
internal functions, we don't need to.

WDYT, Jerin, Abdullah.
