That separate hunk would be unbuildable since arm-smmu depends on the IOMMU_EXEC define. Patch 2/ is also in iommu code and gates patch 3/ in arm-smmu. The IOMMU-core changes are pretty trivial, so perhaps Joerg would be willing to ACK 1&2 and let Will include the first 3 patches through his tree. These first 3 patches should have been sent on their own since they're small an obvious so they don't get hung up on the reset of the series.
