My point is that we'll probably not change IOMMU_PAGE_SHIFT. The only
thing we might do is to move the shift into the iommu_table structure to
make it per-iommu (in which case the TCE backend will use 4k or 64k
depending on actual HW/FW support for those sizes).

Which will not happen.

See my above comment :)

No. DART would set the table shift to DART_PAGE_SHIFT, TCE would set it
to TCE_PAGE_SHIFT and the backend would always get natively sized
addresses/counts.

Ben.
