One simple comment. This should be also applicable to multi-master IOMMUs that the masters of an IOMMU is not configurable with ID or something. I think the title needs to be changed to cover such IOMMUs which always translate master's transactions and unable to change the configuration of the relationship between the masters and IOMMUs by S/W.
