Hi Youquan,
  Thanks for the answer.
OK but I can already work around this at boot time by passing nointremap.

Is there no safe way to make this automatically fall back if intremap or source-id isn't working?

Remember, that the behaviour as seen by the user is a black screen/failure to boot - it's not very
helpful. Is my patch actually safe? If it's safe then I suggest putting something similar to it in so that
if its failing the kernel falls back to something safe.
