Re: [PATCH 1/1] x86/iommu: fix incorrect bit operations in setting values

1st step shows we should NOT disable the iommu when it is already
enabled. But current code does disable-enable. So there is still works
to do.


The original kernel does a disable and re-enable , Bill's patchset removed the disable operation.

I think step 2 is necessary, because when the driver initializes, the
device need a new map, and the old data from the old kernel can not be
used for the new driver.

Now I am trying to implement these ideas.

Thanks
