The IOMMU error is most likely caused by a bug in the VL805 firmware.
It happens with the Debian kernel (and not mainline) as Debian patches
the kernel to enable IOMMU by default. The updated VL805 firmware
apparently fixes the bug, it can be installed using the VIA Windows
tool (this did not work for me), or you can just turn off IOMMU.
