CONFIG_TEGRA_IOMMU_SMMU is enabled in the default kernel configs and hence DRM
should fail to probe on t124 since 4.11. What about to add stable tag for v4.11+
here to unbreak stable kernels as well?

Host1x also uses the alloc_iova(), though this allocation is actually invoked by
the DRM driver on requesting a channel. It is fine right now because DRM driver
is the only host1x user, but what about to add iova_cache_get() to the host1x
driver as well for consistency?
