[PATCH] x86: fix gart iommu using for amd 64 bit system -v4

after
|commit 75f1cdf1dda92cae037ec848ae63690d91913eac
|Author: FUJITA Tomonori <fujita.tomonori@....ntt.co.jp>
|Date:   Tue Nov 10 19:46:20 2009 +0900
|
|    x86: Handle HW IOMMU initialization failure gracefully
|    
|    If HW IOMMU initialization fails (Intel VT-d often does this,
|    typically due to BIOS bugs), we fall back to nommu. It doesn't
|    work for the majority since nowadays we have more than 4GB
|    memory so we must use swiotlb instead of nommu.
...

amd 64 systems that
1. do not have  AGP
2. do not have IOMMU
3. mem > 4g
4. BIOS do not allocate  correct gart in NB.
will leave them to use SWIOTLB forcely.

also in pci_iommu_alloc()
pci_swiotlb_init is stealing the preallocate range that is for
gart_iommu_hole workaround.

so restore the sequence...

will get back
[    0.000000] Your BIOS doesn't leave a aperture memory hole
[    0.000000] Please enable the IOMMU option in the BIOS setup
[    0.000000] This costs you 64 MB of RAM
[    0.000000] Mapping aperture over 65536 KB of RAM @ 20000000

[   12.736944] initcall pci_iommu_init+0x0/0x31 returned 0 after 28802 usecs

-v2: call shutdown when no agp is there
-v3: add check_store to restore state for swiotlb
     separate pci_swiotlb_detect and pci_swiotlb_init from FUJITA
-v4: disable translating in early_gart_iommu_check according to FUJITA
