With an Intel IOMMU it can be the case that 2 devices have to share
the same IOMMU mappings (i.e. you can't program them separately). With
the Exynos System MMU, there is always one System MMU per device, so
there is nothing stopping you from programming any 2 devices' mappings
differently. So yes, the right thing to do here is to have a one to
one relationship between devices and IOMMU groups.
