Peter Xu 9d2e6505f6 iommu/vt-d: Use domain instead of cache fetching
after commit a1ddcbe930 ("iommu/vt-d: Pass dmar_domain directly into
iommu_flush_iotlb_psi", 2015-08-12), we have domain pointer as parameter
to iommu_flush_iotlb_psi(), so no need to fetch it from cache again.

More importantly, a NULL reference pointer bug is reported on RHEL7 (and
it can be reproduced on some old upstream kernels too, e.g., v4.13) by
unplugging an 40g nic from a VM (hard to test unplug on real host, but
it should be the same):

This patch fixes that problem if applied to v4.13 kernel.

The bug does not exist on latest upstream kernel since it's fixed as a
side effect of commit 13cf017446 ("iommu/vt-d: Make use of iova
deferred flushing", 2017-08-15).  But IMHO it's still good to have this
patch upstream.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
