One thing I could also try is to remove direct IOMMU API usage at least
from the host1x driver. I think this might work nowadays.

For Tegra DRM we still need direct IOMMU API usage because we need to be
able to map into an IOMMU domain without knowing the struct device *
that we're mapping for (it could be needed by any of up to four display
controllers). For host1x we always only have one struct device *, so the
DMA mapping API should be good enough.
