^^Nit: presumably you meant "Allow" in the subject.

Right, furthermore I would rather expect these patches on their own to 
hit the problem that my patch tries to avoid - where since mtk_iommu_ops 
is const, the current version of iommu_device_set_ops() is liable to 
blow up trying to write to rodata.

In fact I do wonder a little why that wasn't happening already - maybe 
the compiler is clever enough to tell that the assignment is redundant 
when THIS_MODULE == 0, and elides it :/

Robin.
