Why do we need this struct? Can't we just assign a pointer to struct
rk_iommu directly to dev->archdata.iommu?

hmmm, i was trying to add more device related data in patch[13]:

struct rk_iommudata {
+ struct device_link *link; /* runtime PM link from IOMMU to master
*/
struct rk_iommu *iommu;
};


Can't you just add link to rk_iommu directly?

adding link to rk_iommu would be fine if we only have one master device per rk_iommu.

but now we are supporting multiple master devices sharing a iommu device :)
