Subject: [PATCH 2/2] xen/swiotlb: check if the swiotlb has already been initialized

From: Stefano Stabellini <stefano.stabellini@...inx.com>

xen_swiotlb_init calls swiotlb_late_init_with_tbl, which fails with
-ENOMEM if the swiotlb has already been initialized.

Add an explicit check io_tlb_default_mem != NULL at the beginning of
xen_swiotlb_init. If the swiotlb is already initialized print a warning
and return -EEXIST.

On x86, the error propagates.

On ARM, we don't actually need a special swiotlb buffer (yet), any
buffer would do. So ignore the error and continue.
