[Qemu-devel] [PATCH] spapr: Only report host/guest IOMMU page size mismatches on KVM

We print a warning if the spapr IOMMU isn't configured to support a page size matching the host page size backing RAM. When that's the case we need more complex logic to translate VFIO mappings, which is slower. But, it's not so slow that it would be at all noticeable against the general slowness
