Well, I'm not enthused by this:

+static int iris_vpu_bus_dma_configure(struct device *dev)
+{
+       struct iris_context_bank *cb = dev_get_drvdata(dev);
+
+       if (!cb)
+               return -ENODEV;
+
+       return of_dma_configure_id(dev, dev->parent->of_node, true, &cb->f_id);
+}

A custom bus and then calling configure_id on the parent which would
have already called of_dma_configure on that same of_node seems very
hacky to me.
