Add a driver for the Kirin 960/970 iommu. As on the past series, this starts from the original 4.9 driver from the 96boards tree: https://github.com/96boards-hikey/linux/tree/hikey970-v4.9 The remaining patches add SPDX headers and make it build and run with the upstream Kernel.

Echoing the other comments about none of the driver patches being CC'd to the IOMMU list...
Still, I dug the series up on lore and frankly I'm not sure what to make of it - AFAICS the "driver" is just yet another implementation of Arm LPAE pagetable code, with no obvious indication of how those pagetables ever get handed off to IOMMU hardware (and indeed no indication of IOMMU hardware at all). Can you explain how it's supposed to work?
And as a pre-emptive strike, we really don't need any more LPAE implementations - that's what the io-pgtable library is all about (which incidentally has been around since 4.0...). I think that should make the issue of preserving authorship largely moot since there's no need to preserve most of the code anyway ;)
