I'm not versed in the spec lingo, but the GPU issues MemRd/Wrs with
the translated bit set and no PASID header - which is the correct form
for an address that was translated by ATS.

To get to that it issues ATS requests, and only the ATS related
requests will carry the PASID.

ATS related requests always route to the root port, which is why it is
functionally equivalent to ACS RR/UF in these cases.

Translated requests always route where they are supposed to go, even
with P2P and things.

AMD GPU driver bugs blow up if it cannot setup PASID.

IIRC it is a buggy error unwind handling in the AMD GPU driver.
