Subject: Re: [PATCH] intel-iommu: Quiesce devices before disabling IOMMU

Hi,
Patch is great and works on my HP-z420.
There are several small concerns, please see inline comments.

For context_entry table, the context_entry has the same size as
root_entry currently, so it's also correct to use ROOT_ENTRY_NR. But for
future extention and removing confusion, can we define a new MACRO on
calculating the size of context_entry table, e.g CONTEXT_ENTRY_NR?

Here, we have got the specific dev, why don't we just call
pci_reset_function? If call pci_reset_bus here, will it repeat resetting
devices on the same bus many times?

I remember the double reset issue vivek concerned in the old patch. Here
the iommu reset is done at the very beginning of pci_iommu_init, it's
after the bus subsystem init, it means here only iommu reset, am I
right?

If yes, I think this patch is clear and logic is simple.

BTW, what's the status of Alex's PCI patchset which this patch depends
on?

Baoquan
