Pulled, thanks a lot Joerg!

A few (small) comments:

+static void dump_dte_entry(u16 devid)
+{
+       int i;
+
+       for (i = 0; i < 8; ++i)
+               pr_err("AMD-Vi: DTE[%d]: %08x\n", i,
+                       amd_iommu_dev_table[devid].data[i]);

that 8 is not very obvious - it deserves a comment. (we allocate at 
least one page to amd_iommu_dev_table[] so it's safe - but where the 
8 comes from is not very clear.)

Also, we tend to write 'i++' not '++i' in loops. (there's other 
examples of this too in the iommu files)

This log printing pattern:

        printk(KERN_ERR "AMD-Vi: Event logged [");

        switch (type) {
        case EVENT_TYPE_ILL_DEV:
                printk("ILLEGAL_DEV_TABLE_ENTRY device=%02x:%02x.%x "
                       "address=0x%016llx flags=0x%04x]\n",

is now broken (produces an unexpected newline) due to:

  5fd29d6: printk: clean up handling of log-levels and newlines

you probably want to convert all printk's to pr_*() calls, and use 
pr_cont() in the above place.

Similar comments hold for dump_command() as well.

function prototypes belong into amd_iommu.h, not amd_iommu_types.h.

there's also a lot of function prototypes declared in the .c file:

+++ b/arch/x86/kernel/amd_iommu.c

+static void reset_iommu_command_buffer(struct amd_iommu *iommu);

These can generally be avoided via cleaner ordering: first define 
simpler functions then more complex ones (which rely on simpler 
functions).

+       if (unlikely(i == EXIT_LOOP_COUNT)) {
+               spin_unlock(&iommu->lock);
+               reset_iommu_command_buffer(iommu);
+               spin_lock(&iommu->lock);
+       }

What did iommu->lock protect it here, why do we drop it, and why is 
it necessary to take it again? This pattern shows that either 
there's too much or too little locking.

+       /* increase reference counter */
+       domain->dev_cnt += 1;

use ++?

+ * If a device is not yet associated with a domain, this function does
+ * assigns it visible for the hardware

typo.

+static void update_domain(struct protection_domain *domain)
+{
+       if (!domain->updated)
+               return;
+
+       update_device_table(domain);
+       flush_devices_by_domain(domain);
+       iommu_flush_domain(domain->id);
+
+       domain->updated = false;
+}

the domain->updated is a bit weird naming. Perhaps 
domain->update_needed?

+               iommu_unmap_page(domain, iova, PM_MAP_4k);

small nit: mixed-case letters - PM_MAP_4K is better i guess.

+#define PM_ALIGNED(lvl, addr)  ((PM_MAP_MASK(lvl) & (addr)) == (addr))

macro with two uses of its parameter - this is side-effect-unsafe. 
Safer would be to turn this into an inline function. That would also 
do proper type checking.

+       /* allocate passthroug domain */

typo.

+/*****************************************************************************

+ * mode
+ *
+ * In passthrough mode the IOMMU is initialized and enabled but not used for

please use the customary (multi-line) comment style:

  /*
   * Comment .....
   * ...... goes here.
   */

specified in Documentation/CodingStyle.

+#define PD_PASSTHROUGH_MASK    (1UL << 2) /* domain has no page
+                                             translation */

ditto.

+       domain->dev_cnt += 1;

Could use '++' here too.

Thanks,
