+ arm/amd maintainers..

DomU (other than Dom0) gets crashed when a device IOTLB flush times out. I 
suppose that's what you will want on ARM/AMD then too.
We need to move up the crash logic , as similar as iommu_map_page() / 
iommu_unmap_page().

    - add the crash logic to iommu_iotlb_flush() / iommu_iotlb_flush_all().

    - when IOMMU/MMU share page tables, we need to fix it one by one.
        -- on amd, we need to add the crash logic to amd_iommu_flush_pages().
        -- on intel, we need to add the crash logic to iommu_pte_flush().
        -- on arm, we benefit that we add the crash logic to 
iommu_iotlb_flush().


Taken together, we need to add crash logic to
                         iommu_iotlb_flush() / iommu_iotlb_flush_all() / 
iommu_pte_flush() / amd_iommu_flush_pages().

Thoughts?
