I support your viewpoint. But in this current case Linux kernel VMID mapping
for secure context bank stream IDs is incorrect. As Konrad mentioned in the
other thread that for secure media streaming use-cases, it rather requires
proper representation via iommu-map such that appropriate VMID can be mapped.

Sure, this change isn't breaking any DT ABI but brings compliance to
usage of stream IDs.
