On NVIDIA SoC's the ARM SMMU needs to interact with the memory
controller in order to map memory clients to the corresponding stream
IDs. Document how the nvidia,memory-controller property can be used to
achieve this.

Note that this is a backwards-incompatible change that is, however,
necessary to ensure correctness. Without the new property, most of the
devices would still work but it is not guaranteed that all will.
