Same check is also required in iommu_disable_irq_remapping().

The spec says that:

--
For implementations reporting the Enhanced Set Interrupt Remap Table
Pointer Support (ESIRTPS) field as Set, hardware performs global
invalidation on all Interrupt remapping caches as part of Interrupt
Remapping Disable operation.
--

While looking at that code I think it's problematic to invalidate interrupt
cache before disabling interrupt remapping. Presumably invalidations
should be done only after a configuration is changed, no matter it's 'enable'
or 'disable'.

Thanks
Kevin
