I wonder if we should maintain backward compatibility for this driver
since s5p-mfc memory allocation won't work with an old FDT if support
for the old properties are removed.

Although I'm not a big fan of keeping backward compatibility just to
add dead code that will never be used and I don't know of any Exynos
machine where the DTB and kernel are not updated together so I agree
with this patch:

Well, minimally the commit log should indicate that compatibility is 
being broken.

Compatibility is only partially broken. I add this to the commit 
message. Old
bindings will still work with the new driver when IOMMU is enabled - in 
such case reserved
memory regions are ignored so this should not be a big issue. Using 
IOMMU also increases
total memory space for the video buffers without wasting it as 
'reserved'. Hope that
once those patches are merged, the IOMMU can be finally enabled in the 
exynos_defconfig.

Yes, a problem is that some Exynos machines (for example the Snow and Peach
Chromebooks) fail to boot when IOMMU is enabled due the bootloader leaving
the FIMD enabled doing DMA operations automatically as you found before.

You proposed to add a "iommu-reserved-mapping" property [0] but that never
landed due not having an agreement on how should be fixed properly IIUC [1].

So that has to be fixed before enabling the Exynos IOMMU support by default.
