Okay I take that back, I got my EL6 kernel rock stable with the
correct blend of backported bits.

So ignore that backtrace, however I did get another IOMMU hang on my
upstream kernel with gem_linear_blits,

so this should be fine to merge but I'm guessing we have more
debugging to do on the VT-d cases.

Dave.
