x86, iommu: Fix IOMMU_INIT alignment rules

This boot crash was observed:

 DMA-API: preallocated 32768 debug entries
 DMA-API: debugging enabled by kernel config
 BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at 19da8955
 IP: [<f4ffffff>] 0xf4ffffff
 *pde = 00000000

The crux of the failure was that even if we did not use any
of the .iommu_table section, the linker would still insert it
in the vmlinux file. This patch fixes that and also fixes the
runtime crash where we would try to access the array.
