Hi,

Since we now have an updated verion[0] of IORT spec(E.d) which
addresses the memory attributes issues discussed here [1],
this series now make use of it.

The pull request for ACPICA E.d related changes are already
raised and can be found here,
https://github.com/acpica/acpica/pull/752

v7 --> v8
  - Patch #1 has temp definitions for RMR related changes till
    the ACPICA header changes are part of kernel.
  - No early parsing of RMR node info and is only parsed at the
    time of use.
  - Changes to the RMR get/put API format compared to the
    previous version.
  - Support for RMR descriptor shared by multiple stream IDs.

Please take a look and let me know your thoughts.

Thanks,
Shameer

>From old:
We have faced issues with 3408iMR RAID controller cards which
fail to boot when SMMU is enabled. This is because these
controllers make use of host memory for various caching related
purposes and when SMMU is enabled the iMR firmware fails to
access these memory regions as there is no mapping for them.
IORT RMR provides a way for UEFI to describe and report these
memory regions so that the kernel can make a unity mapping for
these in SMMU.

Change History:

v6 --> v7
 -fix pointed out by Steve to the SMMUv2 SMR bypass install in patch #8.

v5 --> v6
- Addressed comments from Robin & Lorenzo.
  : Moved iort_parse_rmr() to acpi_iort_init() from
    iort_init_platform_devices().
  : Removed use of struct iort_rmr_entry during the initial
    parse. Using struct iommu_resv_region instead.
  : Report RMR address alignment and overlap errors, but continue.
  : Reworked arm_smmu_init_bypass_stes() (patch # 6).
- Updated SMMUv2 bypass SMR code. Thanks to Jon N (patch #8).
- Set IOMMU protection flags(IOMMU_CACHE, IOMMU_MMIO) based
  on Type of RMR region. Suggested by Jon N.

v4 --> v5
 -Added a fw_data union to struct iommu_resv_region and removed
  struct iommu_rmr (Based on comments from Joerg/Robin).
 -Added iommu_put_rmrs() to release mem.
 -Thanks to Steve for verifying on SMMUv2, but not added the Tested-by
  yet because of the above changes.

v3 -->v4
-Included the SMMUv2 SMR bypass install changes suggested by
 Steve(patch #7)
-As per Robin's comments, RMR reserve implementation is now
 more generic  (patch #8) and dropped v3 patches 8 and 10.
-Rebase to 5.13-rc1

RFC v2 --> v3
 -Dropped RFC tag as the ACPICA header changes are now ready to be
  part of 5.13[0]. But this series still has a dependency on that patch.
 -Added IORT E.b related changes(node flags, _DSM function 5 checks for
  PCIe).
 -Changed RMR to stream id mapping from M:N to M:1 as per the spec and
  discussion here[1].
 -Last two patches add support for SMMUv2(Thanks to Jon Nettleton!)
