Sorry for joining the discussion late. Have you considered using the
generic iommu
binding here instead of a custom property? This would mean having a device
node for the grant-table mechanism that can be referred to using the 'iommus'
phandle property, with the domid as an additional argument.

It does not quite fit the model that Linux currently uses for iommus,
as that has an allocator for dma_addr_t space, but it would think it's
conceptually close enough that it makes sense for the binding.
