There are checks for IOMMU presence in other places in vb2-dma-contig,
so it was used only when no IOMMU is available, but I agree that the
hacky code should be replaced by a generic code if possible.

Tested-by: Marek Szyprowski <m.szyprowski@xxxxxxxxxxx>

V4L2 pipeline works fine on older Exynos-based boards with CMA and IOMMU
disabled.
