I understand what you are pointing at, but we did test this.
IOMMU on this silicon is standard ARM64 SMMUv3.

All dma_map_single does is virt_to_page and iommu_dma_map_page
converts it back i.e page_to_phys.
So the IOMMU driver gets the same physical address passed above and
creates a iova translation mapping.

For reference below is the captured debug info for the same
=====
[   19.435968] rvu_setup_msix_resources: phy_addr 0x3200000 iova 0xfff80000
[   19.436967] rvu_setup_msix_resources: virt_to_page(phy_addr)
0xffff7fe00000c800 page_to_phys(page) 0x3200000
offset_in_page(phy_addr) 0x00
=====

Thanks,
Sunil.
