That doesn't seem particularly useful :/

Either way, if firmware did set up a translation context, is there any
guarantee that its pagetables haven't already been stomped on by Linux
(e.g. via memtest)?

The SMR ID and MASK fields are either both 15 bits or both 16 bits,
depending on EXIDS. This mix-and-match is plain wrong either way.

What about stream indexing?

EXIDs again...

How can you tell whether an SMR or S2CR has been programmed by the
firmware, or that its UNKNOWN reset value is junk which just happens to
look plausible?

Does anything prevent the SMMU being suspended between here and whenever
the relevant drivers(s) show up to properly establish the device links?

Stepping back from the implementation details, I also have concerns that
this will interact badly with kexec/kdump, but mostly the fact that it's
at best a partial workaround, rather than a real solution to the
fundamental problem that initialising an IOMMU can break
EFIFB/bootsplash/etc., *regardless* of whether the firmware is even
aware of said IOMMU at all - I've already been living with this on my
Juno board for months since EDK2 gained Arm HDLCD support. AFAICS this
can only be solved by some sort of RMRR-like mechanism, i.e. firmware
providing explicit information about what address ranges are currently
in use by which devices. I've been pondering what a DT-based
implementation might look like for a while now, and I guess it's
probably time to raise it with the IORT spec owners as well.

That said, once we've perfected our WIP design for keeping invasive
implementation details out of the way of each other and the core
architectural driver flow, I wouldn't rule out the possibility of
slotting something like this in as a qcom-specific feature if the "we
can't change the firmware" argument is going to come up.
