It looks like there is a bad DMAR table entry (with address 0) in the ACPI data. In case you are interested how it looks like:
DMAR @ 0xcb3f3f90 0000: 44 4d 41 52 90 00 00 00 01 d5 49 4e 54 45 4c 20 DMAR......INTEL 0010: 44 48 38 37 52 4c 20 20 40 01 00 00 49 4e 54 4c DH87RL @...INTL 0020: 01 00 00 00 26 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ....&........... 0030: 00 00 10 00 01 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ................ 0040: 01 00 30 00 00 00 00 00 00 b0 eb cb 00 00 00 00 ..0............. 0050: ff 9f ec cb 00 00 00 00 01 08 00 00 00 00 1d 00 ................ 0060: 01 08 00 00 00 00 1a 00 01 08 00 00 00 00 14 00 ................ 0070: 01 00 20 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 d7 00 00 00 00 .. ............. 0080: ff ff 1f df 00 00 00 00 01 08 00 00 00 00 02 00 ................ Turns out the i7-4770K doesn't support VT-d, so my current understanding is that there should be no DMAR table in the first place.
