How does this implementation differ from the one supported by qcom_iommu.c?
I notice you're adding firmware hooks here, which we avoided by having the
extra driver. Please help me understand which devices exist, how they
differ, and which drivers are intended to support them!

Also -- you didn't CC all the maintainers for the firmware bits, so adding
Andy here for that, and Rob for the previous question.

Thanks,
