The patch seems to do some slightly inappropriate things.

OK.

It'd be better to avoid the ifdef-in-C by providing a stub function in a
header file if !CONFIG_IOMMU.  That's quite standard kernel practice and
might help avoid some other problems...

And does the kernel work OK if CONFIG_PCI=n?  I think so from inspection,
by luck.

This is the only pci-related function which is declared in proto.h.  I
suspect you chose the wrong header file for this declaration.
