Subject: [PATCH 4/4] iommu/amd: Do not use flush-queue when NpCache is on

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

Do not use flush-queue on virtualized environments, where the NpCache
capability of the IOMMU is set. This is required to reduce
virtualization overheads.

This change follows a similar change to Intel's VT-d and a detailed
explanation as for the rationale is described in commit 29b32839725f
("iommu/vt-d: Do not use flush-queue when caching-mode is on").
