To fix the locking bug and ugly abuse of dev->iommu?

I wouldn't say that, it is up to the people who care about this to
decide. It seems alot of people are hitting it so maybe it should be
backported in some situations. Regardless, we should not continue to
have this locking bug in v6.8.

I haven't seen patches or an outline on what you have in mind though?

In my view I would like to get rid of of_xlate(), at a minimum. It is
a micro-optimization I don't think we need. I see a pretty
straightforward path to get there from here.

Do you also want to get rid of iommu_fwspec, or at least thin it out?
That seems reasonable too, I think that becomes within reach once
of_xlate is gone.

What do you see as "cemeting"?
