Hmm, this code usually runs at enumeration time when no driver is
attached to the device. Actually it would be pretty dangerous when this
code runs while a driver is attached to the device. How does that change
make things work for you?


I was seeing this get called via the path driver_probe_device() ->
platform_dma_configure() -> of_dma_configure() -> of_iommu_configure()
-> iommu_probe_device() -> ...

The only cases I was seeing where dev->driver is NULL where a few
places that drivers call of_dma_configure() on their own sub-devices.
But maybe there are some other paths that I did not notice?

For the of_iommu flow, it very much depends on your DT layout and driver probe order as to whether you catch the "proper" call from iommu_bus_notifier()/iommu_bus_init() or the late "replay" from of_iommu_configure(). I wouldn't make any assumptions of consistency.
