Subject[patch 51/58] intel-iommu: Avoid panic() for DRHD at address zero.
2.6.29-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>

(cherry picked from commit e523b38e2f568af58baa13120a994cbf24e6dee0)

If the BIOS does something obviously stupid, like claiming that the
registers for the IOMMU are at physical address zero, then print a nasty
message and abort, rather than trying to set up the IOMMU and then later
panicking.

It's becoming more and more obvious that trusting this stuff to the BIOS
was a mistake.
