Enabling IOMMU in mainline Origen kernel
Why?
The HDMI, MFC, and FIMC interfaces require IOMMU enablement and that enablement needs to be on the mainline kernel 3.4/3.5 for Origen Board.
Context?
We do this as part of our general platform effort.
What gets produced?
A build that runs on Origen where the IOMMU has been enabled.
Where will the work get put?

[2012/6/7 pfefferz] Please put notes here.
[25/6/12 Annamalai]
1) IOMMU Enablement for HDMI, MFC, FIMC
2) IOMMU is enabled for MFC and FIMC
3) Video Playback performance issues are seen for 1080p, needs experiment with increasing page size
4) HDMI IOMMU is causing page fault, debugging with Trace 32 to find RCA
5) investigating the page fault handling mechanism in kernel
6) need to check with landing team with 3.4 and 3.5 hdmi drivers and compare what are the new changes in-corporated
7) reading the iommu framework design
