I looked into the iommu-map property and it shouldn't be too hard to

I plan to upstream this pretty soon, but I have other patches in
flight that touch the same file and I'm waiting for those to get
accepted. I also want to clean up the code a bit to reduce some
repetition before I add support for more bindings.
I'd be happy to help anyone who wants to add ACPI support that allows
ACPI to add device links.
If possible to add, that may be useful for remedying this:

I'm happy that this change might fix that problem, but isn't the
problem reported in that thread more to do with child devices getting
added before the parent probes successfully? That doesn't make sense
to me.

of the pcieport before the pcieport itself probes?
