Doing a bit of archaeology here, is this actually broken? If any ANDD 
entries exist, we'd end up doing:

   down_read(&dmar_global_lock)
   probe_acpi_namespace_devices()
   -> iommu_probe_device()
      -> iommu_create_device_direct_mappings()
         -> iommu_get_resv_regions()
            -> intel_iommu_get_resv_regions()
               -> down_read(&dmar_global_lock)

I'm wondering whether this might explain why my bus_set_iommu series 
prevented Baolu's machine from booting, since "iommu: Move bus setup to 
IOMMU device registration" creates the same condition where we end up in 
get_resv_regions (via bus_iommu_probe() this time) from the same task 
that already holds dmar_global_lock. Of course that leaves me wondering 
how it *did* manage to boot OK on my Xeon box, but maybe there's a 
config difference or dumb luck at play?
