It seems like we have a chip that is impacted by this. I'm being told
that the necessary ARM IP is not available in time to properly match
SMMU and CPU for its particular application.d

The chip is embedded so those work arounds are possibly OK - but I
think this issue keeps coming up and ARM should have a better overall
solution for CPU/SMMU mismatch in the ecosystem since it seems like
this is going to keep happening..

Even if Linux could automatically limit the CPU features to the SMMU
it would be a big help.
