It's not obvious why allowing multiple TCE tables per PE has any
pearing on allowing multiple groups per container.

I thought the more fundamental problem was that different PEs tended
to use disjoint bus address ranges, so even by duplicating put_tce
across PEs you couldn't have a common address space.

Hrm, so here we have more copies of the full iommu_table structures,
which again muddies the lifetime. The table_group pointer is
presumably meaningless in these copies, which seems dangerously
confusing.

With multiple groups (and therefore PEs) per container, this seems
wrong. There's only one table_group per PE, so what's special about
PE whose table group is passed in here.

So, this is exactly the case where the lifetimes are badly confusing.
How can you be confident here that another copy of the iommu_table
struct isn't referencing the same TCE tables?

I see no other mentions of rcu related to this list, which doesn't
seem right.

Hrm. It occurs to me that EEH may need a way of referencing
individual groups. Even if multiple PEs are referencing the same TCE
tables, presumably EEH will isolate them individually.
