SubjectHow to reduce PCI initialization from 5 s (1.5 s adding them to IOMMU groups)
Dear Linux folks,


On a PowerEdge T440/021KCD, BIOS 2.11.2 04/22/2021, Linux 5.10.70 takes
almost five seconds to initialize PCI. According to the timestamps, 1.5
s are from assigning the PCI devices to the 142 IOMMU groups.

```

Is there anything that could be done to reduce the time?


Kind regards,
