"by an iommu domain which is auxiliary to the domain that the kernel
driver primarily uses for DMA API"

"and then calling into the IOMMU layer to complete the vSVA operations

possibly above could be simplified, e.g. 

static struct device *vfio_get_iommu_device(struct vfio_group *group, 
	struct device *dev)
{
	if  (group->mdev_group)
		return vfio_mdev_get_iommu_device(dev);
	else
		return dev;
}

Then use it to replace plain 'dev' in all three places.
