The OMAP IOMMU driver deals with the MMU device only and uses both the
omap_device_{assert/deassert}_hardreset and omap_device_{enable/idle} on
the omap_device associated with the MMU device. The MMU register space
has a SYSCONFIG register (also has softreset that only resets the MMU
block) so we do have a hwmod associated with it to deal with its
setting. Today, the reset API is invoked through pdata-quirks and the
omap_device_{enable/idle} API through the pm_runtime in the IOMMU
driver. Lookup iommu_enable() and iommu_disable() in
drivers/iommu/omap-iommu.c

Yeah kinda. The PRCM registers are just one set, with different bits in
RSTCTRL and RSTST registers dealing with different reset lines. The API
to deal with resets is still using the omap_device API and they are
invoked using pdata-quirks. For OMAP remoteproc driver, we only have one
pdata quirks defined, but the function we plug in invokes both the reset
as well as the omap_device_enable/idle functions (not in mainline yet).
See [1] for reference.

So, we have a unique hwmod/omap_device associated with each of the
individual devices (IOMMU and the processor are represented as a device
each).

OK, looks like these are recent additions by Tero. It will still be a
shared set between the MMU and remoteproc drivers, but let me look into
how these get integrated. At this point, I don't want to be dealing with
separate clk API in my driver.

OMAP IOMMU driver claims and deals with the MMU device in each of the
DSP and IPU subsystems. The OMAP remoteproc driver deals with the DSP or
the Cortex-M3/M4 cores.
