[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] bus/pci: check if 5-level paging is enabled when testing IOMMU address width

[Drocula <quzeyao@gmail.com>]

The kernel version 4.14 released with the support of 5-level paging.
When PML5 enabled, user-space virtual addresses uses up to 56 bits.
see kernel's Documentation/x86/x86_64/mm.txt.
