Hi Dafna,

Sorry for reply late.

In this patchset, this message should be not proper. I think you could
add the comment why this patch is needed in mt8173.

This should not work. since current the *_tlb_flush_all call
pm_runtime_get_if_in_use which will always return 0 when it called from
this runtime_cb in my test. thus, It won't do the tlb_flush_all
actually.

I guess this also depend on these two patches of mt8195 v3.
[PATCH v3 09/33] iommu/mediatek: Remove for_each_m4u in tlb_sync_all
[PATCH v3 10/33] iommu/mediatek: Add tlb_lock in tlb_flush_all

like in [10/33], I added a mtk_iommu_tlb_do_flush_all which don't have
the pm operation.

This looks has a dependence. Let me know if I can help this.
