I think a better way to fix this would be to make sure the module
is enabled during the unmapping phase of the MMUs. If there is no
driver left at that point to call pm_runtime_get() on the module,
do it via pdata-quirks.c using struct iommu_platform_data?
If you can't add the enable/disable around existing assert_reset/
deassert_reset, you can add a new one.
