IPU = imaging processor unit (Cortex-M3 on omap4). yeah, we should rely on that, so we will need to pass IOVMF_DA_FIXED flag, what ideally always be success because it is the first map after getting iommu handle. In this moment it is mapped direcctly using iommu.c and other layer upon that, but it would be nice be able to use iovmm in the future.
