Sorry if I didn't explain myself clearly. I didn't mean that kernelci was
enough to test Exynos IOMMU support, what I said is that would be nice to
have some boot coverage besides the normal manual (or automated) display
testing that someone could do on available platforms as discussed over IRC.

Yes, as I mentioned in the previous email, I tested display (with X) on an
Exynos5800 Peach Pi. I don't have a rootfs with wayland/weston handy but I
could prepare one tomorrow to give a try.

Do you have some test cases for MFC? I know that Gstreamer has support
for it but I don't know what Gst pipelines I can use to test if all is
working correctly.
