Do you think it would be possible to resolve the _DEP link to QGP[01] somehow? For the clocks workarounds this could be resolved by us representing that relationship using device_link and just rely on pm_runtime to propagate the clock state. For the DMA operation, iiuc it's the wrapper that implements the DMA engine involved, but I'm guessing the main reason for mapping buffers on the wrapper is so that it ends up being associated with the iommu context of the wrapper. Are the SMMU contexts at all represented in the ACPI world and if so do you know how the wrapper vs SEs are bound to contexts? Can we map on se->dev when wrapper is NULL (or perhaps always?)?
