I think it would be enough to propagate an error code back out through 
iommu_dma_init_domain(), which should then end up aborting the whole 
IOMMU setup - reserve_iova() isn't really designed to be undoable, but 
since this is the kind of error that should only ever be hit during 
driver or DT development, as long as we continue booting such that the 
developer can clearly see what's gone wrong, I don't think we need 
bother spending too much effort tidying up inside the unused domain.

Sure - at some point it would be nice to wire this up to 
pci-host-generic for Juno as well (with a parallel version for ACPI 
_DMA), so from that viewpoint, the more groundwork in place the better :)

Thanks,
