Why this seemingly unrelated change? I ask because ...

... this parallels the code in iommu_hwdom_init(), which similarly
uses need_iommu_pt_sync() (and during the prior discussion you did
agree with Paul that it shouldn't be changed). IOW the patch for
now can have my R-b only with this change and the respective part
of the description dropped.
