Yes - specifically, it's checking the magic table for a matching
IOMMU_OF_DECLARE entry.

I didn't think this would be a concern for ACPI, since IORT works much
the same way the current of_iommu_init_fn/of_platform_device_create()
bodges in drivers so for DT. If you can only discover SMMUs from IORT,
then iort_init_platform_devices() will have already created every SMMU
that's going to exist before discovering other devices from wherever
they come from, thus you could never get into the situation of probing a
device without its SMMU being ready (if it's ever going to be). Is that
not right?
