At the moment iommu_free_table() only releases memory if
the table was initialized for the platform code use, i.e. it had
it_map initialized (which purpose is to track DMA memory space use).

With dynamic DMA windows, we will need to be able to release
iommu_table even if it was used for VFIO in which case it_map is NULL
so does the patch.

I'm not sure if the "tbl" needs to be checked against NULL as kfree() already
has the check. But it looks a bit strange to free NULL "tbl" from the code
itself.

Yeah, looks a bit weird, agree, I'll change but in general kfree/vfree/... - they all check the passed pointer for NULL.
