We should update arm-smmu.c as well.

Can you justify the need for this? If we actually need to disable
interrupts, then I'd like to understand why so that we can make sure we
get the ordering right with respect to disabling the device. Also, do we
need to clear the MSI registers too?

I have no justification. Based on the number of drivers that take care
to prevent their HW from generating an interrupt, I thought it would be
required, but I can't find any such requirement explicitly laid out in
the documentation.

When you mention the MSI registers do you mean, for instance,
SMMU_GERROR_IRQ_CFG0? It looks like those are always cleared while
initializing the SMMU so the case where an SMMU transitions from using
MSIs to using wired interrupts between kernels will be handled properly.


My understanding is that kexec will mask irqs at the GIC, so there's not
actually an issue here.
