This patchset seems quite large for stable release and need to be well verified
before GA. In -rc1 stage, we don't usually take such a large patchset as people
have already started verification. And we don't usually release -rc2. If you're
trying to solve a very critical issue with this patchset, I have to release -rc2
and ask people to verify again. How critical is your issue?

For the patchset,
- "mem: add function for checking memsegs IOVAs addresses"
  This is adding a new API, so I don't expect any API/ABI breakage, but want to
  double-confirm with Thomas. Thomas?

- "bus/pci: use IOVAs check when setting IOVA mode"
  All the patches got ack except for this one but from looking at the threads in
  dev mailing list, it looks okay. I have a question though.

pci_one_device_iommu_support_va() returns true/false(1/0), then why do you
expect to see a negative return value in case of failure?
