Jetson TK1 & HDMI output in mainline kernel

Hi Mikko, Thierry,

While setting up my Jetson TK1 using the mainline kernel I discovered that the HDMI output
didn't work.

After some more debugging I discovered that this commit 404bfb78daf3bedafb0bfab24947059575cbea3d
(gpu: host1x: Add IOMMU support) was the culprit.

As far as I understand it host1x_probe() calls iommu_attach_device(), which in turn tries to
find the 'iommus' property in the DT. But the hdmi at 54280000 device has no such property and so
iommu_attach_device() returns -ENODEV and the host1x_probe fails.

After making this extremely ugly patch it all works again:

My plan is to use my Jetson TK1 to upstream the Tegra CEC driver that I wrote, but
a working HDMI output would help a lot :-)

I'm not sure if my analysis of the cause is correct, but if someone can take a look
then I would appreciate that!

Regards,

	Hans
