I've added some debug prints at the end of construct_dom0 to print the 
MFN of a RAM page (using get_gfn_query_unlocked) and the VTd entry 
(using print_vtd_entries):

(XEN) print_vtd_entries: iommu ffff8302197c3a40 dev 0000:00:1f.2 gmfn 43e0
(XEN)     root_entry = ffff8302197c0000
(XEN)     root_entry[0] = 140144001
(XEN)     context = ffff830140144000
(XEN)     context[fa] = 2_140148001
(XEN)     l4 = ffff830140148000
(XEN)     l4_index = 0
(XEN)     l4[0] = 140147003
(XEN)     l3 = ffff830140147000
(XEN)     l3_index = 0
(XEN)     l3[0] = 140146003
(XEN)     l2 = ffff830140146000
(XEN)     l2_index = 21
(XEN)     l2[21] = 0
(XEN)     l2[21] not present
(XEN) GFN: 0x43e0 MFN: 0x1401e3 type: 0

This is before Dom0 has been started, so I think there's something 
wrong in the way we build the page tables, because AFAICT the VTd 
code is not able to resolve the GFN, but the EPT code is.
