Hi, baolu

Thanks for your time and suggestions.

I’ve sent v2 (https://lore.kernel.org/all/20251211035946.2071-1-guojinhui.liam@xxxxxxxxxxxxx/)
with the following changes:

1. Simplified the pci_device_is_present() check in __context_flush_dev_iotlb().
2. Added Cc: stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx to both patches.

Best Regards,
Jinhui
