dt-bindings: reserved-memory: Document iommu-addresses

This adds the "iommu-addresses" property to reserved-memory nodes, which
allow describing the interaction of memory regions with IOMMUs. Two use-
cases are supported:

  1. Static mappings can be described by pairing the "iommu-addresses"
     property with a "reg" property. This is mostly useful for adopting
     firmware-allocated buffers via identity mappings. One common use-
     case where this is required is if early firmware or bootloaders
     have set up a bootsplash framebuffer that a display controller is
     actively scanning out from during the operating system boot
     process.

  2. If an "iommu-addresses" property exists without a "reg" property,
     the reserved-memory node describes an IOVA reservation. Such memory
     regions are excluded from the IOVA space available to operating
     system drivers and can be used for regions that must not be used to
     map arbitrary buffers.

Each mapping or reservation is tied to a specific device via a phandle
to the device's device tree node. This allows a reserved-memory region
to be reused across multiple devices.

iommu-addresses:
$ref: /schemas/types.yaml#/definitions/phandle-array
description: >
A list of phandle and specifier pairs that describe static IO virtual
address space mappings and carveouts associated with a given reserved
memory region. The phandle in the first cell refers to the device for
which the mapping or carveout is to be created.
The specifier consists of an address/size pair and denotes the IO
virtual address range of the region for the given device. The exact
format depends on the values of the "#address-cells" and "#size-cells"
properties of the device referenced via the phandle.
When used in combination with a "reg" property, an IOVA mapping is to
be established for this memory region. One example where this can be
useful is to create an identity mapping for physical memory that the
firmware has configured some hardware to access (such as a bootsplash
framebuffer).
If no "reg" property is specified, the "iommu-addresses" property
defines carveout regions in the IOVA space for the given device. This
can be useful if a certain memory region should not be mapped through
the IOMMU.
