Please use https://lore.kernel.org/ URLs instead. This one looks like

s/implict/implicit/

s/fapping/?/ (no idea :) "flipping"? Oh, probably "flapping" per the
comment below. But I think "flapping" is ambiguous; "setting" would be
better)

s/v6.2/r6.2/ (also below in comment)

s/invlidation/invalidation/

I would put the comment above the pci_disable_ats(), so it looks like
this:

/* comment ... */
pci_disable_ats(pdev);
pci_enable_ats(pdev, VTD_PAGE_SHIFT);

pci_disable_ats(pdev);

because the spec says the E field must change from Clear to Set to
cause invalidation of all ATC entries, so it's important to see that
we clear E first, then set it.
