intel-iommu: Force-disable IOMMU for iGFX on broken Cantiga revisions.
Certain revisions of this chipset appear to be broken. There is a shadow GTT which mirrors the real GTT but contains pre-translated physical addresses, for performance reasons. When a GTT update happens, the translations are done once and the resulting physical addresses written back to the shadow GTT. Except sometimes, the physical address is actually written back to the _real_ GTT, not the shadow GTT. Thus we start to see faults when that physical address is fed through translation again.
