I put a bigger rework of this on-top of Zhen-Hua's patches, you can find
the result in my x86/vt-d branch. With my patches I also removed this
pointer collecting concept and do the iomap_cache and iounmap calls
before the spin-lock is taken, so this problem is now solved
differently.

I think VT_PAGE_* is correct, since the VT-d driver also runs on ia64.
There the system page-size is different from the VT-d page-size.

This is changed where appropriate, I hope.
