Currently, enabling AVIC requires individually detect and enable GAM and GALOG features on each IOMMU, which is difficult to keep track on multi-IOMMU system, where the features needs to be enabled system-wide. In addition, these features do not need to be enabled in early stage. It can be delayed until after amd_iommu_init_pci(). Therefore, consolidate logic for detecting and enabling IOMMU GAM and GALOG features into a helper function, enable_iommus_vapic(), which uses the check_feature_on_all_iommus() helper function to ensure system-wide support of the features before enabling them, and postpone until after amd_iommu_init_pci(). The new function also check and clean up feature enablement residue from previous boot (e.g. in case of booting into kdump kernel), which triggers a WARN_ON (shown below) introduced by the commit |

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
