Subject: [PATCH v2 7/9] iommu/vt-d: Remove the 'force_on' variable
Date: Thu, 2 Jul 2026 06:12:14 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260702061216.388743-8-kevin.tian@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260702061216.388743-1-kevin.tian@intel.com>
The force_on variable is now redundant - same information captured
by "dmar_policy == DMAR_FORCE_ON". Replace all force_on checks
with dmar_policy_force_on().
Signed-off-by: Kevin Tian <kevin.tian@intel.com>
