Subject: [PATCH 2.6.28-rc3] x86: make CONFIG_SWIOTLB configurable
Make it possible to enable individually the CONFIG_SWIOTLB option.
This is useful for Intel x86_64 systems without DMAR support.

Tested on my system based on Gigabyte GA-EP45-DS3 mainboard
(P45 chipset) with 8 GiB of RAM.
Currently I need to enable either CONFIG_GART_IOMMU or
CONFIG_AMD_IOMMU for proper work. Both are AMD specific.
When the patch applied, just CONFIG_SWIOTLB is sufficient.
