The hardware limitation "max=19" actually comes from SMMU Command Queue.
So, it'd be more natural for tegra241-cmdqv driver to read it out rather
than hardcoding it itself.
This is not an issue yet for a kernel on a baremetal system, but a guest
kernel setting the queue base/size in form of IPA/gPA might result in a
noncontiguous queue in the physical address space, if underlying physical
pages backing up the guest RAM aren't contiguous entirely: e.g. 2MB-page
backed guest RAM cannot guarantee a contiguous queue if it is 8MB (capped
to VCMDQ_LOG2SIZE_MAX=19). This might lead to command errors when HW does
linear-read from a noncontiguous queue memory.
Adding this extra IDR1.CMDQS cap (in the guest kernel) allows VMM to set
SMMU's IDR1.CMDQS=17 for the case mentioned above, so a guest-level queue
will be capped to maximum 2MB, ensuring a contiguous queue memory.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
