Pulled.

However, why didn't this then add some sanity checking for the two
different #defines to be in sync?

IOW, something like

#define AMD_IOMMU_IRQ_TABLE_SHIFT 9

#define MAX_IRQS_PER_TABLE (1 << AMD_IOMMU_IRQ_TABLE_SHIFT)
#define DTE_IRQ_TABLE_LEN ((u64)AMD_IOMMU_IRQ_TABLE_SHIFT << 1)

or whatever. Hmm?

That way this won't happen again, but perhaps equally importantly the
linkage will be more clear, and there won't be those random constants.

Naming above is probably garbage - I assume there's some actual
architectural name for that irq table length field in the DTE?
