Documentation/devicetree/bindings/iommu/iommu.txt +79
When an "iommus" property is specified in a device tree node, the IOMMU will
be used for address translation. If a "dma-ranges" property exists in the
device's parent node it will be ignored. An exception to this rule is if the
referenced IOMMU is disabled, in which case the "dma-ranges" property of the
parent shall take effect.
The dma-ranges is only required by IOMMU disabled case. And should exist in
the parent node of IOMMU device. But this deleted dma-ranges is under the usb
bus node.

The dma_alloc_coherent() will allocate memory with GFP_DMA32 flag and
try the 0-4G first. The reserved swiotlb buffer memory is used only
when the allocation failed.
memory@80000000:
device_type: ["memory"]
reg: [[0x0, 0x80000000, 0x0, 0x80000000], [0x8, 0x80000000, 0x1, 0x80000000]]
If this is the actual physical memory size, the #address-cells should be set to <1>.
