The caching mode of an IOMMU is irrelevant to the behavior of the device
TLB. Previously, commit <304b3bde24b5> ("iommu/vt-d: Remove caching mode
check before device TLB flush") removed this redundant check in the
domain unmap path.
Checking the caching mode before flushing the device TLB after a pasid
table entry is updated is unnecessary and can lead to inconsistent
behavior.
Extends this consistency by removing the caching mode check in the pasid
table update path.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
