Thread-topic: [Xen-devel] [vt-d][xen4-rc6] Hangs on startup
Actually I think I ran into this once before. Someone sent me a screen shot of 
their e820 mappings from the actual BIOS setup program clearly showing the 
memory range was reserved yet the check that generated the message below was 
triggered. I could not reproduce it but I think I tracked it down to changes 
that xen was making to the e820 mappings in sanitize_e820_map() (that is IIRC, 
it was a year ago or more).

Thanks
Ross

Actually iommu_inclusive_mapping=1 is the default now. The above warning
appears to print even when iommu_inclusive_mapping is set. :-)
