What is the reason you only implement one domain? Can't the IOMMU
isolate different devices from each other?

This is not going to work. If you always return the same domain the
iommu core might re-initialize domain state (and overwrite changed
state). At the moment this is only the domain-type which will change
every time this function is called, but there might be more.

Putting every device into its own group indicates that the IOMMU can
isolate between single devices on the bus, which makes it even more
questionable that you only allow one domain for the whole driver.
