The filename of the patch is:
iommu-arm-smmu-defer-probe-of-clients-after-smmu-dev.patch
and it can be found in the queue-6.6 subdirectory.
If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree,
please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it.
FWIW the correct resolution for cherry-picking this directly is the
logically-straightforward one, as below (git is mostly just confused by
the context)
Cheers,
Robin.

iommu/arm-smmu: Defer probe of clients after smmu device bound
[ Upstream commit 229e6ee43d2a160a1592b83aad620d6027084aad ]
Null pointer dereference occurs due to a race between smmu
driver probe and client driver probe, when of_dma_configure()
for client is called after the iommu_device_register() for smmu driver
probe has executed but before the driver_bound() for smmu driver
has been called.
Following is how the race occurs:
T1:Smmu device probe T2: Client device probe
really_probe()
arm_smmu_device_probe()
iommu_device_register()
really_probe()
platform_dma_configure()
of_dma_configure()
of_dma_configure_id()
of_iommu_configure()
iommu_probe_device()
iommu_init_device()
arm_smmu_probe_device()
arm_smmu_get_by_fwnode()
driver_find_device_by_fwnode()
driver_find_device()
next_device()
klist_next()
/* null ptr
assigned to smmu */
/* null ptr dereference
while smmu->streamid_mask */
driver_bound()
klist_add_tail()
When this null smmu pointer is dereferenced later in
arm_smmu_probe_device, the device crashes.
Fix this by deferring the probe of the client device
until the smmu device has bound to the arm smmu driver.
