I know that Andrew was keep on having a separate Kconfig option for
VT-D, separate from VMX. But still, couldn't we make the VT-D Kconfig
option depending on CONFIG_VMX?
To me, VT-D should require VMX, without VMX it should not be possible to
enable VT-D.
This comment goes in the same direction of my previous comment regarding
the vpmu: we are trying to make things more configurable and flexible
and that's good, but we don't necessary need to make all possible
combination work. VT-D without VMX is another one of those combination
that I would only enable after a customer asks.
