I don't want to use that "if (bus == &sbus_bus_type)" scheme so
if that's what your patch will do don't bother :-)
I'm consolidating all of the IOMMU handling code on sparc64
since they all do exactly the same thing, so at least on
sparc64 there will be essentially direct calls to the IOMMU
code agnostic of bus type.
Sparc32 will be a bit different, and that platform has no
active maintainer so it'll have to wait until I have a
spare weekend to do nothing but sparc32 stuff :-)
