And that's by design.

I don't know what the FSL bus is and I don't want to know, what
I am telling you is that the ACPI code in the mainline is sufficient
to support SBSA compliant HW and that's what we support with ACPI
on ARM64.

We won't hack the kernel (and ACPI tables) up to boot with ACPI on
non-compliant platforms, I don't know how I can be any clearer than
that.

All is needed to configure the (platform dev/PCI->IOMMU->ITS) chain is
in the ACPI/IORT specifications and again, that's by design, adding
DSDT objects and hacking the kernel to make it work "like DT" won't
cut it, you are solving the wrong problem here, boot this platform
with a device tree, it is a problem that has been solved a long time
ago and it is supported in the mainline kernel.
