Subject: [091/244] iommu/amd: Make sure iommu->need_sync contains correct value

3.0-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Joerg Roedel <joerg.roedel@....com>

commit f1ca1512e765337a7c09eb875eedef8ea4e07654 upstream.

The value is only set to true but never set back to false,
which causes to many completion-wait commands to be sent to
hardware. Fix it with this patch.
