Agreed, how about we add a separate example for that case:

Multiple-master IOMMU with fixed associations:
----------------------------------------------

/* multiple-master IOMMU */
iommu {
/*
* Masters are statically associated with this IOMMU and
* address translation is always enabled.
*/
#iommu-cells = <0>;
};

/* static association with IOMMU */
master@1 {
reg = <1>;
iommus = <&/iommu>;
};

/* static association with IOMMU */
master@2 {
reg = <2>;
iommus = <&/iommu>;
};

?
