On some SoCs like MSM8956, MSM8976 and others, secure contexts are
also secured: these get programmed by the bootloader or TZ (as usual)

disallowing direct register writes from Linux and, in many cases,
completely disallowing the reprogramming of TTBR, TCR, MAIR and other
registers including, but not limited to, resetting contexts.
This is referred downstream as a "v2" IOMMU but this is effectively
a "v2 firmware configuration" instead.

Luckily, the described behavior of version 2 is effective only on
secure contexts and not on non-secure ones: add support for that,
finally getting a completely working IOMMU on at least MSM8956/76.
