No HDA sound output with AMD IOMMU on master

No HDA sound output with AMD IOMMU on master

[Alex Xu (Hello71)]

Hi,

At some point between 86f925fded03 and 5f4e450cd96b, the built-in sound 
card on my ASRock B450 Pro4 has stopped working for me. All controls are 
unchanged (no new or removed controls, all outputs are unmuted), but 
when I try to play sound, I hear a click from the output powering up but 
no sound otherwise. While attempting to play sound, the following lines 
are output to the kernel log:

Note that I first attempted to play audio around 15 seconds in, then 
tried again about 730 seconds later.

Adding mem_encrypt=off to the kernel command line does not fix the 
issue, but adding mem_encrypt=off amd_iommu=off to the kernel command 
line does fix it. I am not using any other IOMMU-related parameters such 
as iommu=pt.

I have not yet tested it, but it seems reasonable that this issue is 
probably related to the recently pulled "ALSA: memalloc" series of 
changes.

Let me know what further information or testing is required. I can do a 
full bisection but it is somewhat time-consuming due to the manual 
nature of the tests.

Thanks,
Alex.

Could you try to revert the commit 2d9ea39917a4?
