I think this is fixed already by

iommupt: Make it clearer to the compiler that pts.level == 0 for single page
Older versions of gcc and clang sometimes get tripped up by the build time
assertion in FIELD_PREP because they can see that the argument to
FIELD_PREP is constant but can't see that the if condition protecting it
is also a constant false.
In file included from <command-line>:
In function 'amdv1pt_install_leaf_entry',
inlined from '__do_map_single_page' at drivers/iommu/generic_pt/fmt/../iommu_pt.h:651:3,
inlined from '__map_single_page0' at drivers/iommu/generic_pt/fmt/../iommu_pt.h:662:1,
