Although they didn't reach the notifier because of the filtering in
memory_region_notify_iommu_one, the vt-d was still splitting huge
memory invalidations in chunks. Skipping it.
This improves performance in case of netperf with vhost-net:
* TCP_STREAM: From 1923.6Mbit/s to 2175.13Mbit/s (13%)
* TCP_RR: From 8464.73 trans/s to 8932.703333 trans/s (5.5%)
* UDP_RR: From 8562.08 trans/s to 9005.62/s (5.1%)
* UDP_STREAM: No change observed (insignificant 0.1% improvement)
