Qian Cai 3b5581e8db iommu/amd: Silence warnings under memory pressure
[ Upstream commit 3d708895325b78506e8daf00ef31549476e8586a ]

When running heavy memory pressure workloads, the system is throwing
endless warnings,

smartpqi 0000:23:00.0: AMD-Vi: IOMMU mapping error in map_sg (io-pages:
5 reason: -12)
Hardware name: HPE ProLiant DL385 Gen10/ProLiant DL385 Gen10, BIOS A40
07/10/2019
swapper/10: page allocation failure: order:0, mode:0xa20(GFP_ATOMIC),
nodemask=(null),cpuset=/,mems_allowed=0,4
Call Trace:
 <IRQ>

 </IRQ>

because the allocation could fail from iommu_map_page(), and the volume
of this call could be huge which may generate a lot of serial console
output and cosumes all CPUs.

Fix it by silencing the warning in this call site, and there is still a
dev_err() later to notify the failure.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
