Oh, it's totally wrong. I'm sorry about that.

Maybe even with my wrong patch, dmar interrupt is configured in the
intel_iommu_init()->init_dmars()->dmar_set_interrupt() code path. I
think this is why I could not noticed my badness in my test.

By the way, why do we need to try to configure dmar interrupt in the
intel_iommu_init() code path again?
