I just realized that dma_io_tlb_mem might be NULL like Christoph
pointed out since swiotlb might not get initialized.
However,  `Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address
dfff80000000000e` looks more like the address is garbage rather than
NULL?
I wonder if that's because dev->dma_io_tlb_mem is not assigned
properly (which means device_initialize is not called?).
