Properly explained in the description, that's an option. Even better
would of course be to do away with the unnecessary save/restore in
a prereq patch, at which point the question disappears as to what to
pass to the function at that point.

Conceptually this looks better to me. I'd prefer to avoid shadowing
the global "iommu_enabled" though, and set the local variable to
"true" only one we actually enable the IOMMU. Also strictly speaking
you care about the enabling of interrupt remapping, not that of the
IOMMU (which implicitly means DMA remapping). I wonder whether the
code couldn't easily be made cope with IOMMU already being enabled,
assuming that this would lead to {iommu,intremap}_enabled to already
be true on entry. I.e. you'd request a "raw" restore unless
intremap_enabled changed from false to true.

Whether it's "raw" or "translate" doesn't really matter to me.
What I'm after is for you to not pass raw=true when you really
mean raw=false (or the other way around), relying on the
intremap_enabled check down the call chain in io_apic_write().
