[PATCH] ACPI: RIMT: Add dependency between iommu and devices

From: Sunil V L <sunilvl at oss.qualcomm.com>

EPROBE_DEFER ensures IOMMU devices are probed before the devices that
depend on them. During shutdown, however, the IOMMU may be removed
first, leading to issues. To avoid this, a device link is added
which enforces the correct removal order.
