Interestingly, when I disable VT-D in the motherboard BIOS. I can boot
with "intel_iommu=on pci-stub.ids=DEVICEID"
and the DEVICE is successfully loaded by the pci-stub driver, according
to $lspci -nnk readout
additionally, I see:
$dmesg | grep -e IOMMU
[0.000000] DMAR: IOMMU enabled
even though I actually DISABLED VT-D in the motherboard BIOS. Going back
now and enabling it in the BIOS causes freezing during boot again.
I'm also having trouble assigning this device to the vfio-pci driver,
but that might be a separate issue.

Passing EITHER "intel_iommu=on intremap=off" OR " "intel_iommu=on
vfio_iommu_type1.allow_unsafe_interrupts=1" during boot results in a
freeze at boot. This happens at the loading initramfs step ("initrd
/boot/initramfs-linux.img").
Any further suggestions? Thanks,
