    Following is a brief description of the PAMU hardware:
    PAMU determines what action to take and whether to authorize the action on
    the basis of the memory address, a Logical IO Device Number (LIODN), and
    PAACT table (logically) indexed by LIODN and address. Hardware devices which
    need to access memory must provide an LIODN in addition to the memory address.
    
    Peripheral Access Authorization and Control Tables (PAACTs) are the primary
    data structures used by PAMU. A PAACT is a table of peripheral access
    authorization and control entries (PAACE).Each PAACE defines the range of
    I/O bus address space that is accessible by the LIOD and the associated access
    capabilities.
    
    There are two types of PAACTs: primary PAACT (PPAACT) and secondary PAACT
    (SPAACT).A given physical I/O device may be able to act as one or more
    independent logical I/O devices (LIODs). Each such logical I/O device is
    assigned an identifier called logical I/O device number (LIODN). A LIODN is
    allocated a contiguous portion of the I/O bus address space called the DSA window
    for performing DSA operations. The DSA window may optionally be divided into
    multiple sub-windows, each of which may be used to map to a region in system
    storage space. The first sub-window is referred to as the primary sub-window
    and the remaining are called secondary sub-windows.
    
    This patch provides the PAMU driver (fsl_pamu.c) and the corresponding IOMMU
    API implementation (fsl_pamu_domain.c). The PAMU hardware driver (fsl_pamu.c)
    has been derived from the work done by Ashish Kalra and Timur Tabi.
