The current generation of Intel® QuickAssist Technology devices
are not designed to run in an untrusted environment because of the
following issues reported in the document "Intel® QuickAssist Technology
(Intel® QAT) Software for Linux" (document number 336211-014):
QATE-39220 - GEN - Intel® QAT API submissions with bad addresses that
trigger DMA to invalid or unmapped addresses can cause a
platform hang
QATE-7495 - GEN - An incorrectly formatted request to Intel® QAT can
hang the entire Intel® QAT Endpoint
The document is downloadable from https://01.org/intel-quickassist-technology
at the following link:
https://01.org/sites/default/files/downloads/336211-014-qatforlinux-releasenotes-hwv1.7_0.pdf
This patch adds the following QAT devices to the blocklist: DH895XCC,
C3XXX and C62X.
