Huh? No, I don't think I did. Please leave the patch as you found it, and
ask me for a version I consider clean next time.

Thanks,

+Optional properties:
+--------------------
+- dma-can-stall: When present, the master can wait for a DMA transaction
+  to be handled by the IOMMU and can recover from a fault. For example, if
+  the page accessed by the DMA transaction isn't mapped, some IOMMUs are
+  able to stall the transaction and let the OS populate the page tables.
+  The IOMMU then performs the transaction if the fault was successfully
+  handled, or aborts the transaction otherwise.

+- pasid-bits: Some masters support multiple address spaces for DMA. By
+  tagging DMA transactions with an address space identifier. By default,
+  this is 0, which means that the device only has one address space.
