Correct, the driver currently doesn't support dynamic mappings (mainly
because I didn't want to try and invent something that I couldn't test).
There are a couple of ways to solve this:
(1) Add a way for a PCI RC to dynamically allocate StreamIDs on an SMMU
within a fixed range. That would probably need some code in the bus
layer, so that a bus notifier can kick and call back to the relevant
SMMU.
(2) Describe the RID -> SID mapping in the device-tree. We probably want
to avoid an enormous table, so this would only work for simple `SID =
RID + offset' or 'SID = RID & mask' cases.
How do your IDs map to each other?
