Hi Don,

This patch is not only for the sake of spec interpretation.
Till now I did not see any bugs , but it does not meant no bugs will appear
in the future. The address returned by dma_pte_addr is used in many places.

Thanks
Zhenhua

Is this patching for the sake of spec interpretation?
a dma-pte format (consumed by iommu) has 63,61:52 as available for sw, ignored by hw. 62 is 'transient mapping' bit, which is a _hint_ for selecting iotlbs to flush sooner. finally, the system would have to have a memory map that actually has bit 62 set to
be affected.

So, for intel-iommu, I don't see a bug occurring.
Did you actually have one with previous definition, and if so,
could you provide that information ?

Cheers,
- Don
