Attached is a boot log w/ the fixed kernel that shows the SMMU being
discovered, the system successfully mounting the root disk, etc.
However, the system does seem to hang at the end with the networking
failing to come up.

This is an improvement, and booting in non-ACPI mode shows no
regressions, so I'll mark this as verified. However, it does look like
there is more needed to get to a fully functional system in ACPI-mode.

Title:
  New ACPI identifiers for ThunderX SMMU

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed
Status in linux source package in Zesty:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  With current firmware (e.g. AMI 018 for CRBs), Cavium ThunderX-based nodes in 
ACPI mode fail to boot due to an undetected SMMU device. This doesn't impact 
the currently certified Cavium ThunderX-based systems, which boot in non-ACPI 
mode by default. However, future ThunderX-based platforms will likely use ACPI 
by default, and they would suffer from this bug.

  [Test Case]
  Boot a Cavium CRB w/ 018 firmware. Note that lack of SMMU boot messages, and 
the failure to boot due to undetected devies (specifically, no root disk found).

  [Regression Risk]
  The upstream fix is adding support for new device IDs, which were previously 
unsupported and would've previously failed to probe w/ -ENODEV.
