Walking through my old queues, I came across this one again.

Given the still lacking reaction from the official maintainer, I'm a
bit confused about the state of intel-iommu. Is it unmaintained? Should
this bug fix better be routed through the KVM tree as its only in-tree
user? Please enlighten me.

Note that the patch became stable material for 35..38 in the meantime,
and it should go into 39 before release as well.

Thanks,
Jan

Obtain the new pgd pointer before releasing the page containing this
value. Remove unneeded cast at this chance as well.
