Would you be able to explain exactly what this "4GB mode" actually is?
I've been trying to make sense of it from the original M4U patches and
the patch for the I2C driver, but it has me completely baffled.
Is it simply used as an extra physical address bit (although surely that
would make it "8GB mode"?), or does it do something crazier like
toggling an interconnect remap that shifts the output addresses up by
1GB to be relative to the base of DRAM, like a dma_pfn_offset?
I guess from the look of these patches that it doesn't change anything
between the masters and the M4U, so input addresses are still 32 bits
and we don't need extended tables, right? Furthermore, what about the
TTBRs? Does the level 1 table still have to be below 4GB?

Either way I can't comprehend how it could be fine to just enable
unconditionally without doing _something_ with the actual addresses.

Ha, I wasn't expecting to see Will's argument against generic
quirk-checking be vindicated quite so soon :)
Anyway, no need for braces and nested ifs:

Unfortunately that comment doesn't really explain anything - I'd be
happy to suggest a more helpful wording, If only I understood what it
actually did.

Unfortunately, it is somewhat more crazier than that. Let me have a
short brief on what we got.
Normally, mt8173 memory map looks like this:
Physical addr
---------
| 1st GB | -> HW SRAM and Regs
|--------
| 2nd GB | -> DRAM 1st GB
|--------
| 3rd GB | -> DRAM 2nd GB
|--------
| 4th GB | -> DRAM 3rd GB
|--------
On mt8173, we have a "DRAM 4GB mode" toggle bit. If it is enabled, from
CPU's point of view, the dram will be shifted to start from PA
0x1_00000000. The PA 0x40000000~0xffffffff will become an alias to
0x1_40000000~0x1_ffffffff.
Many HW only support 32bits physical address, the 33bit will be added to
PA when 4GB mode is enabled. This looks like dma_pfn_offset you
mentioned.
Some others, like i2c or audio, support 33bits physical address, mostly
because they support DMA to/from SRAM with the same SW interface. When
4GB mode is enabled, these HW can still access DRAM with aliased dram
address (0x40000000 ~ 0xffffffff)
The MTK M4U(iommu) is another case. It did add 33 bits to page table
entries and registers. Unfortunately, when 4GB mode is enabled, 33bit
must be 1. It treats all PA < 0x1_0000_0000 as invalid address. That's
why we always set the 33bit when 4GB mode is enabled in this patch.
And there are other HWs with even crazier remap rule, but that's another
story...

Many thanks to Joe for the explanation!

OK, now that I think I've got it, how about this?
IO_PGTABLE_QUIRK_ARM_MTK_4GB: (ARM v7s format) Set bit 9 in all
PTEs, for Mediatek IOMMUs which treat it as a 33rd address bit
when the SoC is in "4GB mode" and they can only access the high
remap of DRAM (0x1_00000000 to 0x1_ffffffff).
