[PATCHv7 9/9] ARM: dma-mapping: add support for IOMMU mapper

[Subash Patel]

Sorry for digging this very late. But as part of integrating dma_map v7 
& sysmmu v12 on 3.3-rc5, I am facing below issue:

a) By un-selecting IOMMU in menu config, I am able to allocate memory in 
vb2-dma-contig

b) When I enable SYSMMU support for the IP's, I am receiving below fault:

Unhandled fault: external abort on non-linefetch (0x818) at 0xb6f55000

I think this has something to do with the access to the SYSMMU registers 
for writing the page table. Has anyone of you faced this issue while 
testing these(dma_map+iommu) patches on kernel mentioned above? This 
must be something related to recent changes, as I didn't have issues 
with these patches on 3.2 kernel.

Regards,
Subash
