Hi Robin,

With 'msi-parent' the property is fixed up to have msi-map. In this case there is
no fixup required and simple 'iommu-parent' property can be used, with MC bus
itself providing the stream-id's (in the code execution via FW).

We can also use the iommu-map property similar to PCI, which will require u-boot
fixup. But then it leads to little bit complications of u-boot - kernel compatibility.

If you suggest we can re-use the iommu-map property. What is your opinion?

Thanks,
Nipun
