I've found out now that I can make it work with iommu, by limiting the
available memory to something below 4G (I have a 8G board). So there is
something wrong in the driver or somewhere in memory mapping, iommu api
(since it works when using CMA), ... however: it does clearly not relate
to your patch.

Sure:

https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-clk/patch/20191204082527.19957-1-zhangqing@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx/

I don't know if that is the was last submitted version.
