Hi Konrad,

The iommu_table_entry is sorted by sort_iommu_table() and
check_iommu_entries() finds nothing abnormal,
so there is no related logs to check.

Sorry for my poor english, I'm not saying there is order reverse, even
if there is, it will be repaired by sort_iommu_table(). Then
check_iommu_entries() report nothing.
What I mean is about check_iommu_entries() itself, below printk isn't correct.

printk(KERN_ERR "EXECUTION ORDER INVALID! %pS should be called before %pS!\n",
                               p->detect, q->detect);

Should be:

printk(KERN_ERR "EXECUTION ORDER INVALID! %pS should be called before %pS!\n",
                               q->detect, p->detect);
