Should the binding be updated to move clocks from "optional" to 
"required" then? Juno does actually have a GPU clock for DVFS, but the 
clk-scmi driver didn't seem to want to play nicely with either 
mali_kbase or panfrost DRM, so I've just been leaving it out of my DT 
for now (and mali_kbase was perfectly happy without).

True, io-pgtable itself only really depends on the input size, but in 
order for non-coherent pagtables to work correctly in general, the DMA 
mask does need to be set appropriately, at which point it may as well 
also be propagated into OAS for completeness (as we do in arm-smmu*).

FWIW I'm just gonna leave this quote here...

	gpu_props->mmu.va_bits = KBASE_UBFX32(raw->mmu_features, 0U, 8);
	gpu_props->mmu.pa_bits = KBASE_UBFX32(raw->mmu_features, 8U, 8);
