Since you already have the code you should make this 'other series'
right now. It should delete iommu_group_attach() and fix
iommu_device_attach().

You also didn't really do my suggestion, this messes up the normal
__iommu_attach_group()/__iommu_detach_group() instead of adding the
clear to purpose iommu_replace_group() for VFIO to use. This just
makes it more difficult to normalize the APIs.

Otherwise it does seem to have turned out to be more understandable.
