Oh, apparently what's happened is that I've inadvertently enabled the 
tegra-gart driver, since it seems that *wasn't* calling bus_set_iommu() 
before. Looking at the history, it appears to have been that way since 
c7e3ca515e78 ("iommu/tegra: gart: Do not register with bus"), so 
essentially that driver has been broken and useless for close to 8 years 
now :(

Given that, I'd be inclined to "fix" it as below, or just give up and 
delete the whole thing.

Thanks,
Robin.
