This seemed like a too trivial addition to waste Rob's time on, so I
didn't add him (or the DT list for that matter) on Cc. The ARM SMMU
maintainers had reviewed this, which seemed like it was enough for what
the DT bindings change was doing.

In any case, I clearly should've checked the DT binding check output
more carefully. It's rather messy for Tegra because there's quite a few
that we haven't converted yet. I'll have to resume my effort to convert
the remaining ones and fixup the device trees so that we can actually
run the DT binding and DTB validation checks more usefully.

I've sent out a follow-up fix that removes the two bogus lines. It looks
like that was the result of a bad conflict resolution on my part.

This is because originally the Tegra194 SMMU nodes were supposed to only
represent a "dual" instance. However, on Tegra194 there are three SMMU
instances in total, with the third instance (dedicated for isochronous
traffic) being completely separate and having only a single range of
registers.

That third instance was previously supposed to be covered by the normal
"arm,mmu-500" compatible string, but given that we really need that
interoperation between SMMU and memory controller for SID override
programming, we need the Tegra-specific compatible for the ISO instance
of the SMMU as well. And since that uses only one set of registers,
minItems had to become 1.
