Sorry, I missed this comment.
During the initial patches, when the iommu_ops were different between, support multiple SMMU drivers at the same is not possible as one of them(that gets probed last) overwrites the platform bus ops. 
On revisiting the original issue, This problem is no longer relevant. At this point, It makes more sense to just get rid of 3rd instance programming in arm-smmu-nvidia.c and just limit it to the SMMU instances that need identical programming.

-KR
