We need to check that the phandle does indeed point at one of our SMMUs
here, in case we have a system with multiple IOMMU types, all using the
generic binding.

Why does the iommu driver do this at all? The of_parse_phandle_with_args()
call should really be part of the iommu common code when we probe the devices in
of_dma_configure() as far as I can tell.

The way I would have expected it to happen is to have some code that
ensures the iommu drivers are instantiated before we do call of_platform_populate,
and then of_dma_configure() looks for whether there is an iommu property or not
and calls into the respective iommu driver for doing the setup if there is.
