Tegra 20 IOMMU H/W, GART (Graphics Address Relocation Table). This
patch implements struct iommu_ops for GART for the upper IOMMU API.

This H/W module supports only single virtual address space(domain),
and manages a single level 1-to-1 mapping H/W translation page table.

The code looks good in general.
Thanks.
I think we need to extend the IOMMU-API
a little bit to better support GART IOMMUs. A user of the IOMMU-API
should be able to get the information about the iova-base and size of
the aperture for example. These extensions will be beneficial for
porting other GART-like driver to the IOMMU-API too.
is it similar to how ".pgsize_bitmap" is passed?
