iommu/iova: Silence warnings under memory pressure ...
[ Upstream commit 944c9175397476199d4dd1028d87ddc582c35ee8 ]
When running heavy memory pressure workloads, this 5+ old system is
throwing endless warnings below because disk IO is too slow to recover
from swapping. Since the volume from alloc_iova_fast() could be large,
once it calls printk(), it will trigger disk IO (writing to the log
files) and pending softirqs which could cause an infinite loop and make
no progress for days by the ongoimng memory reclaim. This is the counter
part for Intel where the AMD part has already been merged. See the
commit 3d70889532
