Technical description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

iommu/mediatek: Always enable the clk on resume

In mtk_iommu_runtime_resume always enable the clk, even

if m4u_dom is null. Otherwise the 'suspend' cb might

disable the clk which is already disabled causing the warning:
