Ah didn't realize that. Thank you!

Two questions on the topic:
1. how comes only the AMD driver is so verbose in reporting io page faults?
   Neither intel nor other iommu drivers seem to log anything

2. Would it make sense to have a control to disable such logging,
   either per-device or globally? Eg something like this (negative
   logic so it must be set explicitly to disable logging).


@ -985,6 +985,7 @@ struct device {
     defined(CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_SYNC_DMA_FOR_CPU_ALL)
        bool                    dma_coherent:1;
 #endif
+       bool                    no_log_fault:1;

...
+               if (!pdev->dev.no_log_fault && __ratelimit(&dev_data->rs))
+                       dev_err(&pdev->dev, "Event logged [IO_PAGE_FAULT dom
