[Xen-devel] [PATCH 2/2] xen/swiotlb: If user supplied e820_hole=1 in the guest config, enable SWIOTLB.



We can detect that the user is using e820_hole=1 by parsing the E820.
If it shows regions other than E820_RAM or E820_RESV then the
user is bent on providing us with a PCI device and forgot
to do 'iommu=soft'. So lets enable it for him/her.
