That sounds like exactly what we want, doesn't it?
Or do you *want* DMA from the previous kernel to complete? That will
read or scribble on something, but maybe that's not terrible as long
as it's not memory used by the kdump kernel.

The fact that the device is no longer usable is definitely a problem.
But in principle we *should* be able to recover from these errors. If
we could recover and reliably use the device after the error, that
seems like it would be a more robust solution that having to add
special cases in every IOMMU driver.
If you have details about this sort of error, I'd like to try to fix
it because we want to recover from that sort of error in normal
(non-crash) situations as well.
