OK, so it looks more like a property of the IOMMU master than a property of
the IOMMU itself. It would be better to express it as such, but I wonder how
that could be done, and if it would be worth it in this case.
As not all masters (the OMAP3 ISP doesn't for instance) have restrictions
regarding the VA range they can address, should this property be at least made
optional ?
