Intel IOMMU: Intel IOMMU driver
Actual intel IOMMU driver. Hardware spec can be found at:
http://www.intel.com/technology/virtualization
This driver sets X86_64 'dma_ops', so hook into standard DMA APIs. In this
way, PCI driver will get virtual DMA address. This change is transparent to
PCI drivers.
[akpm@linux-foundation.org: remove unneeded cast]
[akpm@linux-foundation.org: build fix]
[bunk@stusta.de: fix duplicate CONFIG_DMAR Makefile line]
