Incorrectly shifted relocation address will cause a lower memory corruption
and likely a hang on a write or a read of an arbitrary data in case of IOMMU
absent. As of now there is no use for the address shifting (at least on
Tegra20) and adding a proper shifting / sizes validation is much more work.
Perhaps change to "As of now there is no use for the address shifting on
Tegra20" if you post another revision.
I'll post a new revision of the series after getting comments to the all
patches, to not churn the ML. Thank you very much for the reviews!
However, given your previous comments to this patch, I'll probably add a bypass
of the shit checking in case of IOMMU presence.
I don't think that's needed - the firewall will deny pretty much all VIC submissions due to is_addr_reg not being implemented so it cannot reasonably be used on modern Tegras anyway.
