Okay, this sounds like a case for arm_smmu_get_resv_region(). It should
return an entry for the reserved memory region the firmware needs to
access, so that generic iommu can setup this mapping.

Note that it should return that entry only for your device, not for all
devices. Maybe there is a property in DT or IORT you can set to
transport this information into the arm-smmu driver.

This is pretty similar to RMRR mapping on the Intel VT-d IOMMU or
Unity-mapped ranges in the AMD-Vi IOMMU.
