Hmm. I never got it to segfault, IOMMU or not :) The closest I could get to a
segfault is the kernel sending it SIGKILL, which results in the console saying
"Killed" and dmesg warning you that the oomkiller had to kill the worst RAM
offender.

Anyway, we should really mark this bug as fixed, even though the original bug
title is a *horrible* misnomer for the actual symptom and fix here...
