Will do.

Will do.

Will do. Since this need those irq DTE_IRQ_xxxx MACRO which is defined
in amd_iommu.c , I plan to move them into amd_iommu_types.h, and then do
irq-remapping. These can be made in another patch.

The current fix is simplest and cleanest. Because the on-flight DMAs
continue transferring data since system crash, including guest
translations, we may not need to care about it and just let it continue
flying a little more time until device is reset. Since you have suggested,
I will try to make another patch for this issue, we can see the effect.

Thanks
