You are right. Sorry for the noise. Please ignore it.

We have done this with below.

static int vfio_mdev_iommu_device(struct device *dev, void *data)
{
         struct device **old = data, *new;

         new = vfio_mdev_get_iommu_device(dev);
         if (!new || (*old && *old != new))
                 return -EINVAL;

         *old = new;

         return 0;
}

But I agree that as a generic iommu aux-domain api, we shouldn't put
this limited assumption in it.

Yes. Fair enough.

Thanks for the guide. I will check your reply.
