[PATCH] iommu/amd: Remove dead code for exclusion ranges in IVMD
Posted by Yu Zhang 16 hours ago
Exclusion ranges in IVMD are treated as unity mappings with r&w
permissions since commit 0bbe4ced53e3 ("iommu/amd: Fix the
overwritten field in IVMD header"), using 1:1 mappings. And IOMMU
Exclusion Base & Range Limit Registers (0x0020/0x0028) are actually
no longer used.

As a result, several definitions and code paths became dead code:

 - exclusion_start/exclusion_length in struct amd_iommu are never
   assigned,
 - iommu_set_exclusion_range() always returns 0 now.
 - MMIO_EXCL_ENABLE_MASK & MMIO_EXCL_ALLOW_MASK are only used by
   the removed iommu_set_exclusion_range().
 - DEV_ENTRY_EX is no longer set in any DTE.
 - IOMMU_UNITY_MAP_FLAG_EXCL_RANGE is no longer set, thus the
   IOMMU_RESV_RESERVED branch in amd_iommu_get_resv_regions() is
   no longer reachable.

Just remove all of the dead code. No functional change.
