Afair unmap might be called from atomic context as well, for example as
a result of dma_unmap_page(). In exynos IOMMU I simply check the runtime
PM state of IOMMU device. TLB flush is performed only when IOMMU is in 
active
state. If it is suspended, I assume that the IOMMU controller's context
is already lost and its respective power domain might be already turned off,
so there is no point in touching IOMMU registers.
