ATI ~== AMD these days. The problem is Nvidia cards stuck into AMD
systems.
I guess refusing those DMA accesses (and printing something
meaningful and relentlessly honest so that the user knows where the
problem comes from) is the proper solution. There will be some
end-user moaning, there might be distros turning off the IOMMU code
summarily, but nvidia-in-AMD-box is an unfriendly alliance to begin
with.
