Changed to:

+ * @domain_alloc_user: allocate a user iommu domain corresponding to the input
+ *                     @hwpt_type that is defined as enum iommu_hwpt_type in the
+ *                     include/uapi/linux/iommufd.h. Different from domain_alloc
+ *                     it requires iommu driver to fully initialize a new domain
+ *                     including the generic iommu_domain struct. Upon success,
+ *                     if the @user_data is valid and the @parent points to a
+ *                     kernel-managed domain, the type of the new domain must be
+ *                     IOMMU_DOMAIN_NESTED, otherwise be IOMMU_DOMAIN_UNMANAGED.
+ *                     Upon failure, ERR_PTR must be returned.
