Thanks for the review comments.

During arm_smmu probe, bus_for_each_dev is called which calls
__iommu_probe_device for each all the devs on that bus.

__iommu_probe_device+0x90/0x394
probe_iommu_group+0x70/0x9c
bus_for_each_dev+0x11c/0x19c
bus_iommu_probe+0xb8/0x7d4
bus_set_iommu+0xcc/0x13c
arm_smmu_bus_init+0x44/0x130 [arm_smmu]
arm_smmu_device_probe+0xb88/0xc54 [arm_smmu]

and the deferred probe function is calling of_iommu_configure on the
same dev which is currently in __iommu_probe_device path in this case
thus causing the race.

Right, Adding refcount for dev_iommu should help , I'll post a new patch
with it.
