Ideally the information about iommu attachment should come from the
device tree. We have the "dma-ranges" properties that define how a dma
address space is mapped. I am not entirely sure how that works when you
have multiple IOMMUs and if that requires defining addititional properties,
but I think we should make it so that we don't have to hardcode specific
devices in the source.
