I haven't bothered with separate branches since there's so many 
different pieces in-flight, but my complete (unstable) development 
branch can be found here:

https://gitlab.arm.com/linux-arm/linux-rm/-/commits/iommu/bus

For now I'd recommend winding the head back to "iommu: Clean up 
bus_set_iommu()" for testing - some of the patches above that have 
already been posted and picked up by their respective subsystems, but 
others are incomplete and barely compile-tested. I'll probably rearrange 
it later this week to better reflect what's happened so far.

Cheers,
Robin.
