Thanks Christian.

FWIW, the following *completely untested* hack should in theory give the 
AMD IOMMU similar segment-merging behaviour to the arm64 IOMMU DMA ops, 
if that helps widen the scope for testing/investigation (I have neither 
an AMD/ATI graphics card nor a PCIe-capable arm64 box to hand just at 
the moment).

Robin.
