This looks rather suspect - coherency should be based on coherency, not 
on whether an IOMMU group is present. If the device isn't described as 
coherent in the DT, then any SMMU mappings will end up using attributes 
that will downgrade traffic to be non-snooping anyway. And if the SMMU 
is enabled but not translating (e.g. "iommu.passthrough=1") then 
enabling hardware coherency when the DMA layer hasn't been told about it 
can potentially lead to nasty subtle problems and data loss.
