Dear Robin,

     We have test this patch on our SOC(mt8173),which have our own iommu
HW(it is not ARM SMMU), the patch could work well.
Tested-by:Yong Wu <yong.wu@mediatek.com>

 And I have some questiones about the usage:

1) If we create a iommu domain by ?arch_setup_dma_ops", then we would
like to call the standard iommu interface, like
?iommu_set_fault_handle?,
How can we get the "struct iommu_domain *"? (the ?dev_domain? is
static.)

2) If a device A call ?arch_setup_dma_ops? to create a iommu domain, and
a client device B would like to join this iommu domain, 
so it call ?iommu_dma_attach_device?. then the device B want to alloc
the iommu memory, it call ?dma_alloc_attrs? whose first parameter should
be the ?struct device *?of device A. Is it designed like this in this
patch?
    (In arch/arm, ?dev->archdata.dma_ops = &iommu_dma_ops? is in
?arm_iommu_attach_devce?;
     In this patch, this sentence is in ?arch_setup_dma_ops?).

3)  void arch_setup_dma_ops(struct device *dev, u64 dma_base, u64 size,
struct iommu_ops *iommu, bool coherent)
    In this function, the second and third parameter are the dma address
base and size, can they work currently?
(take a example, I set the dma_base is 0, size is 0x40000000 while
calling arch_setup_dma_ops, 
 then I alloc a range iova whose size is 50*SZ_4K, the return iova is
0xfffce000, it is over 0x40000000.)
