[PATCH v2 3/6] iommu/vt-d: Don't force 32bit devices to uses DMA domain

[Lu Baolu <baolu.lu@linux.intel.com>]

Currently, if a 32bit device initially uses an identity domain,
Intel IOMMU driver will convert it forcibly to a DMA one if its
address capability is not enough for the whole system memory.
The motivation was to overcome the overhead caused by possible
bounced buffer.

Unfortunately, this improvement has led to many problems. For
example, some 32bit devices are required to use an identity
domain, forcing them to use DMA domain will cause the device
not to work anymore. On the other hand, the VMD sub-devices
share a domain but each sub-device might have different address
capability. Forcing a VMD sub-device to use DMA domain blindly
will impact the operation of other sub-devices without any
notification. Further more, PCI aliased devices (PCI bridge
and all devices beneath it, VMD devices and various devices
quirked with pci_add_dma_alias()) must use the same domain.
Forcing one device to switch to DMA domain during runtime
will cause in-fligh DMAs for other devices to abort or target
to other memory which might cause undefind system behavior.
