In the end we should remove all mm reference in the individual drivers.
The drivers only need to know what they need to know. All mm-aware code
should eventually be moved to the core.

For now, at least we should avoid using mm in the set/remove_dev_pasid
code path. Later, once we complete consolidating mm notification in the
core, drivers will have no need to use "mm" anymore.

Best regards,
baolu
