4.1-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Sowmini Varadhan <[email protected]> commit d046b770c9fc36ccb19c27afdb8322220108cbc7 upstream. The check for invoking iommu->lazy_flush() from iommu_tbl_range_alloc() has to be refactored so that we only call ->lazy_flush() if it is non-null. I had a sparc kernel that was crashing when I was trying to process some very large perf.data files- the crash happens when the scsi driver calls into dma_4v_map_sg and thus the iommu_tbl_range_alloc().
