Right. I actually had couple of back and forth on the interfaces and settled
on this mainly because it just requires a single interface from IORT for both
get_resv_regions() and SMMU driver reset bypass path.
ie, iort_iommu_get/put_rmrs()).

But agree the above comment is also valid.

Please find below the revised ones. Please take a look and let me know.

Thanks,

iommu-dma:

void iommu_dma_get_resv_regions(struct device *dev, struct list_head *list) {

if (!is_of_node(dev_iommu_fwspec_get(dev)->iommu_fwnode))
iort_iommu_get_resv_regions(dev, list);
}

void iommu_dma_put_resv_regions(struct device *dev, struct list_head *list) {

if (!is_of_node(dev_iommu_fwspec_get(dev)->iommu_fwnode))
iort_iommu_put_resv_regions(dev, list);
generic_iommu_put_resv_regions(dev, list);
}

iort:

void iort_iommu_get_resv_regions(struct device *dev, struct list_head *head) {
struct iommu_fwspec *fwspec = dev_iommu_fwspec_get(dev);

iort_iommu_msi_get_resv_regions(dev, head);
iort_iommu_get_rmrs(fwspec->iommu_fwnode, dev, head);
}

void iort_iommu_put_resv_regions(struct device *dev, struct list_head *head) {
./*Free both RMRs and HW MSI ones */
}

/* The below ones will be directly called from SMMU drivers during reset */
void iort_get_rmr_sids(struct fwnode_handle *iommu_fwnode, struct list_head *head) {
iort_iommu_get_rmrs(iommu_fwnode, NULL, head); }
}

void iort_put_rmr_sids(struct fwnode_handle *iommu_fwnode, struct list_head *head) {
iort_iommu_put_resv_regions(NULL, head);
}
