address as zero.

Can you clarify the problem there? Looking at the code in iova_reserve_iommu_regions() I'm guessing it's that "region->start + region->length - 1" underflows so reserve_iova() actually ends up reserving the entire valid IOVA space?

An ideal solution would be firmware removing the "iommu-addresses"
property and corresponding "memory-region" if display is not present.
But the kernel should be able to handle this by checking for size and
address of IOVA and skipping the IOVA reservation if both are 0.

Surely it doesn't make sense to reserve a 0-length region at *any* base address? The symptom above wouldn't be quite the same if the base was nonzero, but corrupting the rbtree with an entry where pfn_hi < pfn_lo would definitely not be good either.

FWIW I'd be inclined to log a visible warning that firmware is giving us nonsense.

Thanks,
