After having gone through all the locking here, I'd prefer to err on
the side of clearer documentation when it is actually safe to invoke
this.

I suggest

/* Use in driver facing APIs, API must only be called by a probed driver */
static inline const struct iommu_ops *dev_maybe_iommu_ops(struct device *dev)
{
	if (!dev->iommu || !dev->iommu_iommu_dev))
		return NULL;
	return dev_iommu_ops(dev);
}

Since only this:

Uses a different rule, and it is safe for some pretty unique reasons.

The next patch doesn't follow these rules, I will add a note there..

My identity domain series fixed this up by adding __iommu_group_domain_alloc()
