Again,

I'm now quite confident that the regression comes from commit
66345d5f79fcfa0214f5d98763643d4ee8e6965d as the description talks
about an ordering issue on hp rx2600 between the SBA I/O MMU driver
and the container scan handler.

First, I'm running on hp zx6000 that's a rx2600 with an AGP slot.
Then, defining DEBUG_SBA_INIT in sba_iommu.c clearly shows in dmesg
logs that, for working kernel 3.10.40, ioc_init (and thus
ioc_iova_init) is called once the ACPI/PCI resources (is this the
right terminology?) have been parsed, whereas for non-working kernel
3.11-rc1, ioc_init is called at the very beginning.

Quite evidently, acpi_sba_ioc_add() has to be executed after acpi_pci_root_add()
and we need to enforce that ordering somehow.

Please create a bug entry for that at bugzilla.kernel.org (against ACPI), mark it as a regression and
assign it to rjw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx.

Thanks,
Rafael
