Subject: [PATCH 0/4] iommu/amd: Enable page-selective flushes

From: Nadav Amit <namit@...are.com>

The previous patch, commit 268aa4548277 ("iommu/amd: Page-specific
invalidations for more than one page") was supposed to enable
page-selective IOTLB flushes on AMD.

The patch had an embaressing bug, and I apologize for it.

Analysis as for why this bug did not result in failures raised
additional issues that caused at least most of the IOTLB flushes not to
be page-selective ones.

The first patch corrects the bug from the previous patch. The next
patches enable page-selective invalidations, which were not enabled
despite the previous patch.
