hmmm, right, i did saw this fix in the rockchip iommu driver too.

and there're also some other iommu drivers put bus_set_iommu in their 
probe() to avoid that.

maybe we can do it in the iommu framework?

for example:
1/ add a bus type member to struct iommu_device
2/ and a iommu_device_set_bus()
3/ do the bus_set_iommu stuff in iommu_device_register()
4/ undo bus_set_iommu in iommu_device_unregister()
