[PATCH v7 00/12] iommu/exynos: Fixes and Enhancements of System MMU driver with DT

Hello Cho,

I have been trying out the Exynos System MMU driver including your
fixes, however I notice that if you try to get the iommu_group of a
device (i.e. iommu_group_get(&pdev->dev)) this will not work. Since
each device is behind its own System MMU I would expect a distinct
iommu_group for that device, instead I get NULL (I tried this with the
MFC).

Indeed, it looks like this is not currently implemented in the driver.
Is this something that is on the roadmap?

Best regards,
Antonios Motakis
