Sorry for pestering you but I see that the patch to disable
EXYNOS_IOMMU is still not in Linus' master and we are almost in
4.0-rc4 now.

A patch to the Exynos DRM driver to check for IOMMU and fail
gracefully has landed in 4.0-rc so now at least the machines boot but
with IOMMU enabled display is broken in the Exynos5 boards.
