Re: [PATCH 2/4] Intel iommu: Speed up processing of the identity_mappingfunction v2

Subject: Intel iommu: Speed up processing of the identity_mapping function

When there are a large count of PCI devices, and the pass
through option for iommu is set, much time is spent in the
identity_mapping function hunting though the iommu domains to
check if a specific device is "identity mapped".

Speed up the function by checking the cached info to see if
it's mapped to the static identity domain.
