intel-iommu: Restore DMAR_BROKEN_GFX_WA option for broken graphics drivers
We need to give people a little more time to fix the broken drivers. Re-introduce this, but tied in properly with the 'iommu=pt' support this time. Change the config option name and make it default to 'no' too. Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <David.Woodhouse@intel.com>

1921 Current Graphics drivers tend to use physical address
1922 for DMA and avoid using DMA APIs. Setting this config
1923 option permits the IOMMU driver to set a unity map for
1924 all the OS-visible memory. Hence the driver can continue
1925 to use physical addresses for DMA, at least until this
1926 option is removed in the 2.6.32 kernel.
