As mentioned in the original, this is a heck to explain what is
needed. I am looking for some generic solution for how to specify
IOMMU info for each platform devices. I'm guessing that some other SoC
may have the similar requirements on the above. As you mentioned, this
solution should be a generic, not arch specific.
