Good work, in fact not only intel iommu matters here, I gues you haven't
tried amd system with a AMD-VI which does the amd iommu work. It's
similar to intel iommu and the same principle but different acpi tables.

So it's fine you want to put acpi_early_init earlier.

I checked code, and have no any idea. Add Joey Lee to list, see if he
can help answer this.
