vpu hardware do have video decode and encode usecases that would generate multiple Stream ID's.
So, all these Stream ID's would need to be represented using single input id as mentioned
in dt binding.

Referring patch [1/7] in this series

iommu-map = <0x100 &apps_smmu 0x1940 0x0 0x1>,
            <0x100 &apps_smmu 0x1a20 0x0 0x1>,
	    <0x100 &apps_smmu 0x1944 0x0 0x1>;
		
Here, IRIS_CB_NON_SECURE_NON_PIXEL [1] is the input id.

enum iris_iommu_map_function_id {
  IRIS_CB_NON_SECURE_NON_PIXEL  = 0x100,
