Hi Joerg,
Thanks for your review and comments!
We use original struct dmar_drhd_unit->devices to attach the pci device to specific DMAR,
eg. use dmar_find_matched_drhd_unit() to find the attached DMAR by pci_dev * pointer.
So if the related pci_dev was removed, I think we can safely set dmar_dev->pdev = NULL;
No pci device will use it again until the new pci device hot add.

One problem in this solution is PCI bus number maybe changed after device hotplug,
so use the bus,device,function id to update the dmar device scope maybe unreliable.

Jiang Liu also provide a solution to fix this problem by save device scope pathes,
I think that's a good idea.
