I thought we agreed to do all the allocations in host1x, which obviously means not using the cma_gem_helpers anymore, but introducing a new native host1x object to back GEM/V4L/whatever objects. IMHO the current approach is a clear layering violation and makes proper IOMMU support a lot harder. It would also allow to get rid of all the indirections and ifdefs in host1x memmgr, as host1x would only have to deal with it's native objects. All the complexity of converting host1x to GEM objects should be located in tegradrm and not be scattered between different modules.
