+ * only address up to 32 bits of memory in GATHER opcodes, which means
+ * that command buffers need to either be in the first 2 GiB of system
+ * memory (which could quickly lead to memory exhaustion), or command
+ * buffers need to be treated differently from other buffers (which is
+ * not possible with the current ABI).
+ *
+ * A third option is to use the IOMMU in these cases to make sure all
+ * buffers will be mapped into a 32-bit IOVA space that host1x can
+ * address. This allows all of the system memory to be used and works
+ * within the limitations of the host1x on these SoCs.
+ *
+ * In summary, default to enable IOMMU on Tegra124 and later. For any
+ * of the earlier SoCs, only use the IOMMU for additional safety when
