These are two different groups.  We walk the devices in the mdev's
group with iommu_group_for_each_dev(), holding the mdev's group lock,
but we call iommu_attach_device() with iommu_device, which results in
acquiring the lock for the iommu_device's group.

Have we?  iommu_attach_device() will fail if the group is not
singleton, but that's just encouraging us to use the _attach_group()
interface where the _attach_device() interface is relegated to special
cases.  Ideally we'd get out of those special cases and create an
_attach_group() for aux that doesn't further promote these notions.

See my reply to Kevin, I'm thinking we need to provide a callback that
can enlighten the IOMMU layer to be able to do _attach_group() with
aux or separate IOMMU backed devices.  Thanks,

Alex
