Merge tag 'iommu-updates-v4.20' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/joro/iommu
Pull IOMMU updates from Joerg Roedel:

 - Debugfs support for the Intel VT-d driver.

   When enabled, it now also exposes some of its internal data
   structures to user-space for debugging purposes.

 - ARM-SMMU driver now uses the generic deferred flushing and fast-path
   iova allocation code.

   This is expected to be a major performance improvement, as this
   allocation path scales a lot better.

 - Support for r8a7744 in the Renesas iommu driver

 - Couple of minor fixes and improvements all over the place
