I went deeper into codec reads and writes:
- snd_hda_codec_write
- snd_hdac_codec_write
- codec_write
- snd_hdac_exec_verb
- codec_exec_verb
- snd_hdac_bus_exec_verb_unlocked
- azx_send_cmd / azx_get_response
- snd_hdac_bus_send_cmd / azx_rirb_get_response

In the last functions a circular buffer is used to write commands. The 
problem is that "bus->corb.buf[wp]" and "bus->rirb.res[addr]" are 
nowhere close to the IOMMU-reported address of the offending memory 
access. It's likely that I've missed other communication channels. But 
is it possible that IOMMU-reported address and buffers addresses are of 
different kinds (physical/virtual) or different regions mapped to the 
same physical pages?

Example:
snd_hdac_bus_send_cmd: bus->corb.buf[wp] = cpu_to_le32(val) // = 0x3b8000, wp=0xfb, &buf[wp]=00000000f1fd4592
snd_hdac_bus_get_response: reading result from 0000000059c4003d
snd_hdac_bus_send_cmd: bus->corb.buf[wp] = cpu_to_le32(val) // = 0x339000, wp=0xfc, &buf[wp]=000000007f14c128
snd_hdac_bus_get_response: reading result from 0000000059c4003d
snd_hdac_bus_send_cmd: bus->corb.buf[wp] = cpu_to_le32(val) // = 0x1470740, wp=0xfd, &buf[wp]=00000000a6b14901
snd_hdac_bus_get_response: reading result from 0000000059c4003d
