intel_iommu: relax iq tail check on VTD_GCMD_QIE enable
The VT-d spec (section 6.5.2) prescribes software to zero the
Invalidation Queue Tail Register before enabling the VTD_GCMD_QIE
Global Command Register bit. Windows Server 2012 R2 and possibly
other older Windows versions violate the protocol and set a
non-zero queue tail first, which in effect makes them crash early
on boot with -device intel-iommu,intremap=on.
This commit relaxes the check and instead of failing to enable
VTD_GCMD_QIE with vtd_err_qi_enable, it behaves as if the tail
register was set just after enabling VTD_GCMD_QIE
(see vtd_handle_iqt_write).
