x86/pci-dma: remove the experimental forcesac boot option
Limiting the dma mask to avoid PCI (pre-PCIe) DAC cycles while paying the huge overhead of an IOMMU is rather pointless, and this seriously gets in the way of dma mapping work. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Reviewed-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>

Problem with this is that if we overflow the IOMMU area and

correctly.

As a special case some controllers have a 39bit address

mode that is as efficient as 32bit (aic79xx). Don't force

SAC for these. Assume all masks <= 40 bits are of this

type. Normally this doesn't make any difference, but gives

more gentle handling of IOMMU overflow. */
