+The SMMUv3 architecture is a significant deparature from previous

+ interrupt sources corresponding to entries in

+ include the following:
+ * "eventq" - Event Queue not empty
+ * "priq" - PRI Queue not empty
+ * "cmdq-sync" - CMD_SYNC complete
+ * "gerror" - Global Error activated
+
+** SMMUv3 optional properties:
+
+- dma-coherent : Present if DMA operations made by the SMMU (page
+ table walks, stream table accesses etc) are cache
+ coherent with the CPU.
