Get ACPI IORT RMR regions associated with a dev reserved
so that there is a unity mapping for them in SMMU.

This feels like most of it belongs in the IORT code rather than
iommu-dma (which should save the temporary list copy as well).

See previous comment.  The original intent was for device-tree to also
be able to use these mechanisms to create RMR's and support them
in the SMMU.

Can you clarify how code behind an "if (!is_of_node(...))" check alongside other IORT-specific code is expected to be useful for DT?

Yes, iommu_dma_get_resv_regions() itself wants to end up serving as an abstraction layer, but that still doesn't mean it has to do much more than dispatch into firmware-specific backends as appropriate.

Robin.
