I am not sure which version of SMMU used in our Layerscape platform, I think the
SMMU version is 1 in our early board. So there is not enough stream ID for PCIe or
other peripherals.

Thanks Robin, yes, agree your point, I think I have to drop this patch, the purpose
of submitting this patch to opensource is that to know whether have a best way
to fix this issue, but due to the limitation of hardware, it looks like have no better
way, in a word, thanks a lot.

Agree, if enable more than 16 PCIe devices, the stream IDs for PCIe are not enough,
the root cause is the limitation of the hardware, I think I have to drop it, thanks a lot.
