Okay, I looked again over the code and looks good for merging to me. The
IOMMU Groups code depends on changes in the PCI code. We need to work
out how to merge this.

Bjorn,

I need the PCI changes before I can merge the IOMMU Groups code. There
are two ways that would work for me:

	a) You Ack the PCI patch-set from Alex and I put it into my tree
	   and merge the IOMMU Group code on-top, or
	b) You merge the PCI related patch-set into a seperate branch
	   which you can merge into your next-branch and which I can
	   pull in to merge IOMMU Groups on-top.

Please let me know what works best for you.

What I would also appreciate are a few more Acks from other IOMMU
maintainers (David W.?) and from the Power side.

Thanks,

	Joerg
