This changes the intent of the original code. As the comment says
enable QI on all IOMMUs, then flush the caches and set the root entry.
The order of setting the root entries has changed now.

Refer:
Commit a4c34ff1c029 ('iommu/vt-d: Enable QI on all IOMMUs before
setting root entry')

Thanks Sohil! for catching the bug.
Will send a V2 to Lu Baolu fixing this.

Okay, I will submit a v2 of this series later.

Sai
