Use the newly introduced generic unity map checker.

Also drop the message recommending the usage of iommu_inclusive_mapping: the
ranges would end up being mapped anyway even if some of the checks above
failed, regardless of whether iommu_inclusive_mapping is set.

I'm afraid I don't understand this: When not in an appropriate E820
region, you now even fail IOMMU initialization. Shouldn't such
failure only occur when inclusive mappings weren't requested? At
which point referring to that option is still relevant?

Further to this failing - in patch 2 shouldn't the respective log
messages then be XENLOG_ERR, matching the earlier use of
AMD_IOMMU_ERROR()?

Hmm, noticing only here, but applicable also to the earlier patch: The
"RMRR" (and there "IVMD") is lost, which removes some relevant context
information from the log messages. Can you add a const char* parameter
to the new helper, please?

This is now better handled, since the VT-d code will use the same
logic as the AMD-Vi logic and attempt to 'convert' such bogus RMRR
regions so they can be safely used.  iommu_unity_region_ok() signals
the RMRR region is impossible to be used, and hence not even
iommu_inclusive_mapping would help in that case.  Also note that
iommu_inclusive_mapping is only applicable to PV, so the message was
already wrong in the PVH case.

Oh, indeed, I've converted them all to WARN, when the first one is
indeed WARN, but the following two are ERROR.

I debated myself whether to keep the RMRR/IVMD prefix, but I didn't
think there was a lot of value in it, since whether it's an RMRR or an
IVMD region can be deduced from previous messages.  Anyway will pass
the prefix as a function parameter.

Thanks, Roger.

Impossible only in so far as we don't know whether a such named region
would actually still be accessed post-boot. But yes, if it wouldn't be
accessed, there would also be no need for passing the extra option.

This is a fair point, which probably wants mentioning as (partial)
justification. Plus iirc the intention was to get rid of that option
anyway, at some point.
