There isn't even a MAINTAINERS entry for this, and the git log looks
pretty dead for a long time. I tried to cc people who might care,
but I'm not so optimistic - unless Li says something.
I do feel good that if there is a problem and someone does come
forward it can be fixed up without a big trouble. Certainly without
going back to mis-using iommu_grou_add/remove_device..
Thanks,
Jason
