Could I ask whether this is a must?  And if yes, why?

Do you mean that vIOMMU may fetch wrong context entries too?

Note that as long as vIOMMU DMAR is off globally, vIOMMU will not
fetch context entries at all.  So IMHO this problem should not happen
during the firmware execution time (assuming that the firmware should
not enable vIOMMU at all).
