It kept oopsing on dma_map_single(). I'm guessing it expects som
structures to be present for its IOMMU.

I'm not familiar with the x86_64 IOMMU, I don't even have access to the
hardware. So I figured I'd side-step the problem since there was an API
avaiable that works more reliably.
Andi might be more up to the task?
