Baoquan He b336781b82 iommu/amd: Allocate memory below 4G for dev table if translation pre-enabled
AMD pointed out it's unsafe to update the device-table while iommu
is enabled. It turns out that device-table pointer update is split
up into two 32bit writes in the IOMMU hardware. So updating it while
the IOMMU is enabled could have some nasty side effects.

The safe way to work around this is to always allocate the device-table
below 4G, including the old device-table in normal kernel and the
device-table used for copying the content of the old device-table in kdump
kernel. Meanwhile we need check if the address of old device-table is
above 4G because it might has been touched accidentally in corrupted
1st kernel.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
