Yep.  That's cosmetic and we could suppress the messages if they were
a problem.

Isn't part of the point of an IOMMU protection against malicious
devices and drivers?  If so, we should be able to withstand an
arbitrary number of faults.

Do you really have to reset the IOMMU?  Can you just give it new page
tables that start out with all IOVAs from all devices being invalid,
then add valid mappings as drivers need them (presumably after the
driver has done whatever it needs to so the device stops using the old
DMA addresses)?

I'm not clear on this.  I don't remember what an IOMMU fault looks
like to an Endpoint.  Are you saying that if an Endpoint sees too many
of those faults, it gets into this "fuzzy state" (whatever that is :))?
Is this a hardware defect?  Do we care (this is a kdump kernel, after
all)?  If we do care, can we fix the device by resetting it?
