Removal of IOMMU driver cannot be done reliably, so Exynos IOMMU driver doesn't support this operation. It is essential for system operation, so it makes sense to prevent unbinding by disabling bind/unbind sysfs feature for SYSMMU controller driver to avoid kernel ops or trashing memory caused by such operation.
