> Currently the bus_iommu_probe()/probe_iommu_group() and
> probe_acpi_namespace_devices() rejects already probed devices with an
> unlocked read of dev->iommu_group. The OF and ACPI "replay" functions
> use
> device_iommu_mapped() which is the same read without the pointless
> refcount.

> Move this test into __iommu_probe_device() and put it under the
> iommu_probe_device_lock. The store to dev->iommu_group is in
> iommu_group_add_device() which is also called under this lock for iommu
> driver devices, making it properly locked.

> The only path that didn't have this check is the hotplug path triggered by
> BUS_NOTIFY_ADD_DEVICE. The only way to get dev->iommu_group assigned
> outside the probe path is via iommu_group_add_device(). Today there are
> only three callers, VFIO no-iommu, powernv and power pseries - none of
> these cases probe iommu drivers. Thus adding this additional check is
