Did you mean wraping iommu_feature_disable(iommu, CONTROL_CMDBUF_EN) into a
helper function like iommu_disable_command_buffer(), and wraping
iommu_feature_disable(iommu, CONTROL_EVT_LOG_EN) into
iommu_disable_event_buffer()?

I retest with not disabling command buffer and event log here, it works
on amd iommu v1 and v2 systems. So if I understand your comment
correctly, there's no need to add "iommu_feature_disable(iommu,
CONTROL_CMDBUF_EN)"  and "iommu_feature_disable(iommu,
CONTROL_EVT_LOG_EN)" here. I remember I added them here because more
IO_PAGE_FAULT messages are printed without them. But now it seems not to
related to them. So I will remove above two lines of code.
