I guess it will still take some time until our boards are fully
functional with DT, so I think we should regard this as an interim
solution. Without this patch, a huge deal of code consolidation and
generalization is gated (namely - generic iommu and dma api, and
everything that depends on it, e.g. rpmsg/remoteproc).

Unless Benoit is, I'll happily pick this up.

Sure.

Ok, thanks a lot !
Ohad.
