Subject: [PATCH] iommu/vt-d: Don't copy translation tables if we find unexpected RTT setting

From: Joerg Roedel <jroedel@...e.de>

The RTT bit in the RTADDR_REG can not be changed while
translation is enabled. So check its value if we boot into a
kdump kernel and find translation enabled, and if it is
different from what we would set it to, bail out and don't
try to copy over the translation tables from the old kernel.
