I've done some basic testing with a Jailhouse setup and found it
working. The ACPI table is now properly parsed and the DMA remapping was
not disturbing the system after Jailhouse was activated.

However, it was also still not intervening after I started to corrupt
the configuration, removed DMA target properties from most of the RAM or
dropped PCI devices.

You are not dropping invalid remapping requests, are you? According to
the logs, you are detecting them at least:

(amd-iommu)amd_iommu_get_dte: Device Table at 0x3b0d4000
(amd-iommu)amd_iommu_get_dte: Pte entry at 0x0 is invalid
(amd-iommu)amd_iommu_translate: devid: 00:02.0 gpa 0x32f39480 hpa 0x32f39000

It's a bit hard to test right now if remapping is actually properly
working in all important cases if you do not reject invalid ones.
