If we've already made the decision to move away from bus ops, I don't see that it makes sense to deliberately introduce new dependencies on them. Besides, as it stands, this patch literally implements "tell the iommu-core which hardware-iommus exist in the system and a seperate iommu_ops ptr for each of them" straight off.
Not sure which code you are looking at, but as I see it we have only per-device iommu-ops now (with this patch). That is different from having core-visible hardware-iommu instances where devices could link to. Also the rest of iommu-core code still makes use of the per-bus ops. The per-device ops are only used for the of_xlate fn-ptr. Joerg
