I'm afraid this breaks booting on Skylake Server. Yes, really - I
didn't believe the bisection at first either.

So VT-d is disabled in firmware. Oops, but something we should cope with.
Then we fall into acpi_ivrs_init(), and take the new-in-this-patch early
exit with -ENOENT too.
It turns out ...

... we're relying on this path (now skipped) to set iommu_intremap away
from iommu_intremap_full in the "no IOMMU anywhere to be found" case.
This explains why I occasionally during failure get spew about:
(XEN) CPU0: No irq handler for vector 7a (IRQ -2147483648, LAPIC)
[ 17.117518] xhci_hcd 0000:00:14.0: Error while assigning device slot ID
[ 17.121114] xhci_hcd 0000:00:14.0: Max number of devices this xHCI
host supports is 64.
[ 17.125198] usb usb1-port2: couldn't allocate usb_device
[ 248.317462] INFO: task kworker/u32:0:7 blocked for more than 120 seconds.
and eventually (gone 400s) get dumped in a dracut shell.
Booting with an explicit iommu=no-intremap, which clobbers
iommu_intremap during cmdline parsing, recovers the system.
This variable controls a whole lot of magic with interrupt handling. It
should default to 0, not 2, and only become nonzero when an IOMMU is
properly established. It also shouldn't be serving double duty as "what
the user wants" ahead of determining the system capabilities.
And not to open another can of worms, but our entire way of working
explodes if there are devices on the system not covered by an IOMMU.
