Remap-Ops does not need to be set to NULL because irq_remapping_enabled
will not get set to true then and remap_ops will not get called. The
Intel path can't also be moved to #else because this would mean that
kernels can only support eihter, Intel or AMD IOMMU. But Linux can
support both in the same kernel.
