I'm not too familiar with the IOMMU hardware to know if this is an iommu or display driver issue yet. We can confirm that reverting this commit solves the issue. Given that that commit is an optimization, but it has introduced a regression on multiple platforms, and has been like this for 8 months, it would be common practice to now revert this patch upstream until the regression is fixed. Could you please send a new patch to do this? Also, we would be happy to test any real solutions to this issue while we still have the affected units in hand. Thanks Daniel
