Hi all,

While measuring the impact of a kernel patch on our lab machines I 
stumbled upon
a performance regression affecting the 100Gbit ICE nic and bisected it
from range v5.11.1..v5.13-rc3 to the commit:
a250c23f15c2 iommu: remove DOMAIN_ATTR_DMA_USE_FLUSH_QUEUE

Both recent bpf-next (d6a6a55518) and linux-stable (c4681547bc) are
affected by the issue.

The regression shows as a significant drop in throughput as measured
with "super_netperf" [0],
with measured bandwidth of ~95Gbps before and ~35Gbps after:
I guess that must be the difference between using the flush queue
vs. strict invalidation. On closer inspection, it seems to me that
there's a subtle pre-existing bug in the AMD IOMMU driver, in that
amd_iommu_init_dma_ops() actually runs *after* amd_iommu_init_api()
has called bus_set_iommu(). Does the patch below work?

Robin.

Subject: [PATCH] iommu/amd: Tidy up DMA ops init

Now that DMA ops are part of the core API via iommu-dma, fold the
vestigial remains of the IOMMU_DMA_OPS init state into the IOMMU API
phase, and clean up a few other leftovers. This should also close the
race window wherein bus_set_iommu() effectively makes the DMA ops state
visible before its nominal initialisation, which since commit
a250c23f15c2 ("iommu: remove DOMAIN_ATTR_DMA_USE_FLUSH_QUEUE") can now
lead to the wrong flush queue policy being picked.
