Not sure how it disables SWIOTLB? The AMD Vi does not seem to
change 'swiotlb'. While 'gart_iommu_init' does. Did you mean
the AMD GART code?

Returning positive will mean that the pci_iommu_alloc will stop
processing _all_ other IOMMUs.

While returning 0 will let it detect the other IOMMUs.

Granted on an AMD machine there can be two 'IOMMU's - the GART
and the AMD Vi. The detection is always to call gart_iommu_hole_init
first, then amd_iommu_detect.

I presume if there was one more type on AMD we would run into trouble.
