Recently we found the master of SMMU retries to probe endlessly. [ 3.658956] pci 0000:00:00.0: Retrying from deferred list [ 3.658969] pci 0000:00:00.0: Added to deferred list [ 3.658987] pci 0004:00:00.0: Retrying from deferred list [ 3.658994] pci 0004:00:00.0: Added to deferred list [ 3.659003] pci 0005:00:00.0: Retrying from deferred list [ 3.659010] pci 0005:00:00.0: Added to deferred list [ 3.659019] pci 0004:01:00.0: Retrying from deferred list [ 3.659029] pci 0004:01:00.0: Added to deferred list The retrying should only happen when the IOMMU instance hasn't been probed yet. However, dma_configure() simply return -EPROBE_DEFER when failed to get an IOMMU instance even if the IOMMU instance is failed to probe. This patchset tries to fix the issue by distinguishing probe failures and haven't-been-probed-yet state.
