Robin, Thanks for pointing it out.

Jean, I see that the IORT HTTU flag overrides the hardware register info unconditionally. I have some concern about it:

If the override flag has HTTU but hardware doesn't support it, then driver will use this feature but receive access fault or permission fault from SMMU unexpectedly.
1) If IOPF is not supported, then kernel can not work normally.
2) If IOPF is supported, kernel will perform useless actions, such as HTTU based dma dirty tracking (this series).

As the IORT spec doesn't give an explicit explanation for HTTU override, can we comprehend it as a mask for HTTU related hardware register?
So the logic becomes: smmu->feature = HTTU override & IDR0_HTTU;

OK, so BBML should be a quirk flag too?

Though the word "quirk" is not suitable for HTTU and BBML, we have no other place to convey smmu feature to io-pgtable.

Maybe we can add another field named "iommu_features"? Anyway, I am OK with putting them into quirk flag. :-)
