Did you enable all the clocks/power domains/etc for the GPU SMMU? If I
remember correctly it is off by default and all registers read as
zeroes. The SMMU driver could easily get confused about the capabilities
of the SMMU (e.g. the stage 2/virtualization support) if all the ID
registers read as zeroes.
