This doesn't make any sense. TEX[2:0] is all about memory attributes, not
permissions, so you're making the mapping write-back, write-allocate but
that's not what the IOMMU_* values are about.

      I will delete it.

Well, can you not control mapping permissions with the AP bits? The idea
of the IOMMU flags are:

   IOMMU_CACHE : Install a normal, cacheable mapping (you've got this right)
   IOMMU_READ : Allow read access for the device
   IOMMU_WRITE : Allow write access for the device
   IOMMU_NOEXEC : Disallow execute access for the device

so the caller to iommu_map passes in a bitmap of these, which you need to
encode in the page-table entry.

 From the spec, AP[2] differentiate the read/write and readonly.
How about this?:
//===============
   #define ARM_SHORT_PGD_FULL_ACCESS  (3 << 10)
   #define ARM_SHORT_PGD_RDONLY       BIT(15)

   pgdprot |= ARM_SHORT_PGD_FULL_ACCESS;/* or other names? */
   if(!(prot & IOMMU_WRITE) && (prot & IOMMU_READ))
      pgdprot |= ARM_SHORT_PGD_RDONLY;
//===============
pte is the same.

Sorry, Our HW don't meet the standard spec fully. it don't implement the
AP bits.

This definitely needs a better comment! What exactly are you doing here
and what is that quirk all about?

I use this quirk is for MTK Special Bit as we don't have the XN bit in
pagetable.

I'm still not really clear about what this is.

There is some difference between the standard spec and MTK HW,
Our hw don't implement some bits, like XN and AP.
So I add a quirk for MTK special.

When you say it doesn't implement these bits, do you mean that having them set will lead to Bad Things happening in the hardware, or that it will simply ignore them and not enforce any of the protections they imply? The former case would definitely want clearly documenting somewhere, whereas for the latter case I'm not sure it's even worth the complication of having a quirk - if the value doesn't matter there seems little point in doing a special dance just for the sake of semantic correctness of the in-memory PTEs, in my opinion.
