Hi Hari,

Yogesh is coming from dsplink requirement to use iommu. I see his
comment as why Bridge requirement should be imposed on other IPCs
that need iommu.

Ahh, that explains a lot. However, dsp-link can just enable
CONFIG_MPU_BRIDGE_IOMMU, and that's it, right? Perhaps it would
make
sense to rename to CONFIG_OMAP_IOMMU_IVA2, or something like
that. But
not remove it and break tidspbridge, which is already in staging.

Once both are working happily with CONFIG_OMAP_IOMMU_IVA2 on,
_then_
it can be removed.

Felipe,

dsplink and syslink (two drivers who use iommu) should not enable
CONFIG_MPU_BRIDGE_IOMMU as dspbridge and dsplink /syslink 
can not co-exist as they are using same resources. Not applying patch
breaks dsplink/sylink any one which is being used. Defining this config
makes them co-exist. 

I'm ok with changing name to CONFIG_OMAP_IOMMU_IVA2 but ideally
then that will also break the dspbridge. 

One more way would be to soure revert the patch and apply on dspbridge branch if it breaks the builds on that branch rather than
breaking others in master.

Regards,
Yogesh.
