I have one question for ipmmu_add_device().

In my understanding, your code will find utlb for device
base on device name.
For any device, it will /only/ return utlb number of first match.

How about the case that a device name connected with more than 1 utlb ?
e.g DU device (rcar-du-r8a7790) in Lager

Was that case already covered in your code ?

Thanks.

Best regards,
