Hi Inki,

I am seeing the following failure without IOMMU and light dm fails
to start:

[drm:exynos_drm_framebuffer_init] *ERROR* Non-continguous GEM memory is not supported.

The change I made fixed that problem and light dm starts without IOMMU.
Is there a better way to fix this problem? Currently without IOMMU,
light dm doesn't start.

This is on linux_next

thanks,
-- Shuah
