[Xen-devel] [PATCH v3 3/4] amd-iommu: disable iommu_hap_pt_share with AMD IOMMUs

[Roger Pau Monne <roger.pau@xxxxxxxxxx>]

According to the comment in p2m.h, AMD IOMMUs don't work correctly
with page types different than p2m_ram_rw when the p2m is shared
between HAP and IOMMU, so disable this sharing when using AMD IOMMUs.

I have not tested this patch on AMD hardware, so I would like some
confirmation that this actually works.

Changes since v1:
 - Add a debug message when disabling iommu_hap_pt_share.
