Hi All, 

This patch series is to refractor iommu related common code from
arch/arm/dma-mapping.c to lib/iommu-helper.c based on the various
discussions with the maintainers/experts [1].

Currently the only user of the common lib/iommu-helper code will
be ARM & ARM64 but later various architecture might try to use this
iommu lib helper functions.

Major change of this refactoring starts with bringing out struct dma_iommu_mapping 
*mapping variable from arch/arm/include/asm/device.h to include/linux/device.h
and by moving out complete structure defination of dma_iommu_mapping to
inclue/linux/iommu-helper.h. Link [2] give more details on why this was done,
also this change got approval from Will Daecon [2].

There are 1/2 more function definitions which I can think of moving out, but
those can be done once this patch series is approved as those are not very
big changes.
