           Support for full DMA access of devices with 32bit memory access only
           on systems with more than 3GB. This is usually needed for USB,
           sound, many IDE/SATA chipsets and some other devices.

           The code is only active when needed (enough memory and limited
           device) unless CONFIG_IOMMU_DEBUG or iommu=force is specified
           too.
