Hi Yizhuo Zhai,

your mail is a mime/multipart email with a html version. Please send a
plain text email with the patch in it. You can use git-send-email for
that. This patch doesn't apply through my git workflow.

Also, please change the subject to:

	
	[PATCH] iommu/amd: Argument page_size could be uninitialized

This matches upstream conventions for iommu patches. So make these
changes and re-post this patch after the next merge-window.

Please put a newline between variable definitions and code.
