Subject: [PATCH] Changing the AMD IOMMU API path to work in an atomic context which is necessary for any custom drivers using the IOMMU API while holding a spinlock.

From: Tom Murphy <murphyt7@....ie>

---

This patch allows the IOMMU API path in the AMD driver to be called from an atomic context.
This is useful for anyone building a driver which needs to call the IOMMU API while holding a spinlock.
