Hello Wei,
It's an pci express usb3/xhci add-on card, there also seemed to be an alias
problem with another device, see this thread on LKML, it also contains the
result of amd_iommu_dump on baremetal 2.6.35 kernel.
At first the kernel didn't boot at all, though xen-unstable did load, so i
guess there are a few differences in the amd iommu implementation and parsing
between the linux kernel and xen.
http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1008.1/00782.html
Would be nice to have some good explanation of the problem, so i could contact
MSI to get the bios fixed.
