configuring IOMMU for OF platforms" is missing here despite being queued in
the 6.1 & 6.6 rcs (it is meant to be reverted from 6.12 as well). I noticed
when updating to 6.12.82-rc1 today as I was bit by the regression (all my
IOMMU groups messed up).
The revert for 6.12 is in fact here:
https://lore.kernel.org/stable/20260320172335.29778-1-john@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/
but unfortunately easily missed as shown by the confusion here (same
thread):
https://lore.kernel.org/stable/99426bd8-32e5-4246-9d3b-772e136bc078@xxxxxxxxxxxxx/
subsequently clarified by the patch author here (also same thread):
https://lore.kernel.org/stable/5hng5r6q525scbclramuv2h2hphljbcsscwohvrs7teuedgfvl@ncr7tqhr4l4z/
Other than that 6.12.82-rc1 boots and runs fine for me on the one AMD Ryzen
system I've tried it on.
That was not obvious at all, please don't make us dig through email
threads to know what to and not to apply, it doesn't scale when dealing
with the email volume we get.
Can someone resend that patch, properly marked fro 6.12, so we know to
apply it there?
thanks,

Adding Manivannan Sadhasivam who is the author of the revert that is in the 5.10, 5.15, 6.1 and 6.6 queues right now.
Manivannan, not sure if you are able to provide an updated patch for 6.12 where the revert is missing right now?
FWIW I applied the patch at
https://lore.kernel.org/stable/20260320172335.29778-1-john@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/
on top of 6.12.82-rc1 today and booted on an AMD system to test. It has context issues but still applies fine, and I can confirm that my IOMMU groups are no longer messed up. As a result have been able to pass through 2 separate PCI cards to 2 separate VMs which I am unable to do without the revert.
