Thank you for asking.
I prepared a new patchset and it is ready for submitting.
It includes several bugfixes and Exynos5 support.
The last patche submitted has a bug when the following situation:
1. Allocating a 2nd level page table to map 4KB or 64KB on a virtual region
2. Unmapped all entries in the 2nd level page table.
3. Mapping to the same region with 1MB page.
Then iommu_map() will return -EADDRINUSE due to incorrect counting
free entries in 2nd level page table.
The next patch will be submitted by 2/28.
BTW Marek, I want to know why MFC driver defines separate platform devices
for left and right buses.
The next IOMMU driver defines just one platform device for a H/W device.
Thus, it defines just one SYSMMU_MFC platform device, for example.
(the previous one defines 2 platform devices for SYSMMU_MFC)
However, it is easy to separate the single platform device to multiple
platform devices.
