SubjectRE: [PATCH] iommu/arm-smmu-v3: fixed check process for disable_bypass module parameter

Hi, Robin,
Thank you for your comments.

Sorry, my understanding of the meaning of the disable_bypass module parameter
and the process of setting GBPA_ABORT was insufficient.

I misunderstood that the disable_bypass module parameter is used to simply
bypass (disable) SMMU (SMMU_CR0.SMMUEN == 0 and SMMU_GBPA.ABORT == 0).
Forget about the fixes in this patch.

Although our understanding was lacking,
we thought it would be a good idea to have a module parameter that simply disables SMMU,
so we were considering a fix.

Best regards,
Shuuichirou.
