Hi Peter,

There are two callers for vtd_sync_shadow_page_table_range(), one
provided a valid context entry and one not. Move that fetching
operation into the caller vtd_sync_shadow_page_table() where we need to
fetch the context entry.
Meanwhile, we should handle VTD_FR_CONTEXT_ENTRY_P properly when
synchronizing shadow page tables. Having invalid context entry there is
perfectly valid when we move a device out of an existing domain. When
that happens, instead of posting an error we invalidate the whole region.
Without this patch, QEMU will crash if we do these steps:
(1) start QEMU with VT-d IOMMU and two 10G NICs (ixgbe)
(2) bind the NICs with vfio-pci in the guest
(3) start testpmd with the NICs applied
(4) stop testpmd
(5) rebind the NIC back to ixgbe kernel driver
The patch should fix it.

It seems like a regression as it wasn't reported earlier, isn't it?
If it is, do you know what is the faulty commit?

Other than that, the patch looks good to me.
