There's an awful lot here and it stretches across quite a few subsystems,
with different git trees. What's the plan for merging it?

I'm happy to take some of the arm64 and smmu changes for 5.8, then perhaps
we can review what's left and target 5.9? It would also be helpful to split
that up into separate series where there aren't strong dependencies, I
think.
