Generally this looks fine to me.
But about patch #2, I see no reason to have multiple iommu_pool_hash
tables. Even from a purely sparc perspective, we can always just do
with just one of them.
Furthermore, you can even probably move it down into lib/iommu-common.c
itself. iommu_tbl_pool_init() can do the one time initialization.
