For Exynos IOMMU:

IPMMU and MSM IOMMU are no longer multi-platform safe after this patch.
It breaks them in the same way as my commit 928055a01b3f ("iommu/exynos:
Remove custom platform device registration code") broke Exynos IOMMU.

You need a similar fix for them:

hmmm, right, i did saw this fix in the rockchip iommu driver too.

and there're also some other iommu drivers put bus_set_iommu in their probe() to avoid that.

maybe we can do it in the iommu framework?

for example:
1/ add a bus type member to struct iommu_device
2/ and a iommu_device_set_bus()
3/ do the bus_set_iommu stuff in iommu_device_register()
4/ undo bus_set_iommu in iommu_device_unregister()

Frankly, in case the device-tree based systems bus_set_iommu()
should not be needed at all. However for some legacy reasons it
is still required by a few bits of code (at least it was needed
some time ago). Probably it would be best if this is finally
resolved.

Best regards
