OK so if it's specific to the DSP driver along the lines of sysc and syss registers. Typically we handle these registers by mapping them to the PM runtime functions for the interconnect so we can reset and idle the hardware modules even if there is no driver, see for example omap54xx_mmu_dsp_hwmod. > > We should use some Linux generic framework for configuring these > > bits to avoid nasty dependencies between various hardware modules > > on the SoC. > > > > What does DSP_SYS_MMU_CONFIG register do?

OK yeah seems like it should be handled by the DSP driver during probe after doing pm_runtime_get. Then the driver can configure things like IOMMU and load firmware. Or am I missing something here?
