nit: mention sc7180 in subject, like:

dt-bindings: arm-smmu: Add sc7180 compatible string and mem_iface clock

People usually frown on clock-names ending in "_clk".  Just name it "mem_iface".

Is this clock only needed for sc7180, or would it be useful if we
enabled certain features on existing devices?  Please document exactly
when someone would provide this clock and when they'd leave it off.

...also: maybe it's obvious to those that understand IOMMUs in depth,
but to me I have no idea what your description means and why it's
different from the other two clocks.  Any way you could punch up your
description a little bit?

Looking at sdm845 I see that this clock seems to exist but wasn't
listed in the IOMMU device tree node.  Is that a mistake on sdm845?
...or is it just fine because the GPU holds the clock?  Is there a
reason the sdm845 solution and the sc7180 solution shouldn't be the
same (AKA we should either add this clock to the sdm845 device tree
file or remove it from sc7180)?

Thanks!
