I don't understand how the exact number of context banks is relevant?
It's just that the FW reserves one for itself, which happens to be the last,
probably because some FW dev thought that was a good idea.

Also, I don't like the phrasing "override the number of context banks"
because while this is indeed what is done in the code, the *intent*
is to "lie" to Linux about the existence of the last context bank.

Wouldn't that be too specific?

Angelo's patches were even more generic than mine, as he supported
a list of context banks not-to-be-used-by-linux.

Do you say the LPASS SMMU behaves differently because it's (currently,
to the best of my knowledge) the only SMMU where a context bank
(the last) is not available to Linux?


For easy future reference, here are the reports for the 5 SMMUs enabled on my system.
