DMAR errors on Wildcat Point-LP xHCI (Lenovo T450s)

Hello,

Trying to use a built-in USB device I rarely use (Sierra EM7345 LTE
modem), I ran into issues from the modem flapping (getting removed
from USB bus before LTE network registration is visible) up to all
devices on the bus being "disconnected" (xhci giving up, in my
understanding, with only the root hubs listed by lsusb).
Checking the syslog, I find this:

which makes me suspect a missing IOMMU mapping in ACPI for the xhci
controller. In this case, the xhci could recover and re-enumerated the
device fairly quickly.
Booting with "intel_iommu=off" makes the LTE modem work at least far
enough that it gets registered to network (can send/receive SMS). I
have not tried data communication (no data plan on current SIM).
I have noticed for a while that this machine had a tendency to lose
all USB devices more often than I enable the LTE modem, so it seems
the modem just make this issue more likely, and is not their direct
cause.

This is on a 5.6.7 (Debian Sid 5.6.0-1-amd64, version from which
pasted logs are extracted), and reproduced with 5.6.14 (Debian Sid
5.6.0-2-amd64).
The USB issues have been happening for a long time, and I use this
modem rarely enough that I would not notice a new issue before several
kernel versions.
The modem usually worked "well enough" but always has had a bit of
flapping, sometimes working after one or two suspend/resume cycles,
and until now I did not feel the need to investigate more (I assumed a
less-than-optimal modem/modem driver).
This time it never ended up working after several suspend/resume
cycles and reboots. So I do not believe it is a localised regression,
but a bad situation getting just nudged over the edge.

I am not sure what could fix this issue, hence the many recipients for
this email:
- An xhci module issue (should check/define extra IOMMU mappings, warn
about them missing, or maybe be able to more reliably recover) ?
- A new IOMMU quirk (workaround bad firmware) ?
- A new thinkpad_acpi quirk (workaround bad firmware) ?
Or somewhere else that I did not think of ? Hopefully it will not
require a Lenovo BIOS fix, as this is an aging model.
