I updated to Linus' latest git (as your description made me wonder
if the async stuff might play a role here). I still get an oops -
but at a different spot and the system no longer hangs - it partly
recovers (but things aren't too well - for example my USB
keyboard / mouse don't work anymore).
Spoke too soon. Rebooted and had the same hard lockup again. This
time I had my camera within reach, so here's the trace:

device_to_iommu+0x33/0x73
domain_context_mapping_one+0x37/0x335
domain_context_mapping+0x25/0xa7
iommu_prepare_identity+0xd7/0xf3
intel_iommu_init+0x4e4/0x8f3
? mutex_lock
? sysctl_net_init
? pci_iommu_init
pci_iommu_init

I also have stack, code and register values. Let me know if you need
them. Or I can just post the picture :-)

Again, very latest git tree, VT-d enabled.

I tried latest git tree, it works for me. Above call trace looks
right.

Spent some more time reading the code. Can't quite claim to understand
all of it, yet, but I notice that most everywhere else drhd->devices[i]
is checked to be != NULL before it is accessed. Why is it safe not to
do that in device_to_iommu()?

Would the patch below be a valid fix? It stops my system from hanging at
boot. But I wonder if there is an assertion that if drhd->ignored is 0
then drhd->devices[0..drhd->device_cnt] is known to be != NULL and
therefore this test is just hiding a bug somewhere else...

Did you see following in the kernel message?
printk(KERN_WARNING PREFIX

segment, scope->bus, path->dev, path->fn);

If yes, then
