applied to tip/x86/iommu, thanks Pavel!

That comment is indeed highly misleading - and sets the wrong mindset for 
people who start reading this file. The list you add it to are indeed the 
most common reasons for us to (re-)allocate the aperture.

Would you be interested in sending a patch for a full list of situations 
where we declare the existing aperture invalid and reallocate it? It will 
certainly help understanding the purpose and role of this file.
