It will involve both xen and Linux.  Segment information for the device will 
come from dom0 Linux.  Segment knowledge in VT-d will be added in xen.  For 
example, current vtd/dmar.c/acpi_find_matched_drhd_unit() assumes the entire 
system has only one INCLUDE_ALL vt-d engine.  In a multi PCI segment system, 
each segment can have a INCLUDE_ALL VT-d engine.
