[PATCH v2 3/6] iommu/exynos: Modularize the driver

Rework the driver so it can be built as a loadable module. That can be
useful as not all ARM64 platforms need it. And that's ok for it to be a
module because it's not a critical driver (platform can work when it's
disabled).

Remove method and module exit function are not implemented, as the
removal of IOMMUs cannot be done reliably. As Robin Murphy mentioned in
[1]:

    ...it's better not to even pretend that removing an IOMMU's driver
    while other drivers are using it (usually via DMA ops without even
    realising) is going to have anything other than catastrophic
    results.
