I was more thinking of the PCIe P2P case, where we need to apply a
consistent offset to translate between the CPU and the bus view.

But this isn't really used for PCIe P2P, so I guess keeping the original
sematics might be a better idea.  That being said the videobuf code seems
to rely on these offsets, so we might be between a rock and a hard place.

Note that we don't actually use the code in this patch for ARM/ARM64
platforms with IOMMUs, as both the ARM and the ARM64 iommu code have
their own implementations of ->map_resource that actually program
the iommu (which at least for the PCIe P2P case would be wrong).

It is long overdue anyway.

No, I absolutely _want_ the callback explicitly wired up.  That is the
only way to ensure we actually intentionally support it and don't just
get a default that often won't work.  Same issue for ->mmap and
->get_sgtable.
