Even when second kernel boots up with intel_iommu=on, dma-remapping need to be disabled as well before it is initialized and enabled again in init_dmars(). So, how about something like this?
for_each_drhd_unit(drhd) { struct dmar_drhd_unit *drhd; if (drhd->ignored) continue;
iommu = drhd->iommu; if (iommu->gcmd & DMA_GCMD_TE) iommu_disable_translation(iommu); }
Note, if you agree above code and fix your patch like this, you need additinal fix to set iommu->gcmd flag sinse gcmd is always zero here. See first hunk of this patch. https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/3/20/707
