This bug is awaiting verification that the kernel in -proposed solves
the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the
results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed-
zesty' to 'verification-done-zesty'. If the problem still exists, change
the tag 'verification-needed-zesty' to 'verification-failed-zesty'.

If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will
be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed.

See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how
to enable and use -proposed. Thank you!

Title:
  New ACPI identifiers for ThunderX SMMU

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed
Status in linux source package in Zesty:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  With current firmware (e.g. AMI 018 for CRBs), Cavium ThunderX-based nodes in 
ACPI mode fail to boot due to an undetected SMMU device. This doesn't impact 
the currently certified Cavium ThunderX-based systems, which boot in non-ACPI 
mode by default. However, future ThunderX-based platforms will likely use ACPI 
by default, and they would suffer from this bug.

  [Test Case]
  Boot a Cavium CRB w/ 018 firmware. Note that lack of SMMU boot messages, and 
the failure to boot due to undetected devies (specifically, no root disk found).

  [Regression Risk]
  The upstream fix is adding support for new device IDs, which were previously 
unsupported and would've previously failed to probe w/ -ENODEV.
