Currently vhost_vdpa_cleanup() unmaps the DMA mappings by calling
`iommu_unmap(v->domain, map->start, map->size);`
from vhost_vdpa_general_unmap() when the parent vDPA driver doesn't
provide DMA config operations.

However, the IOMMU domain referred to by `v->domain` is freed in
vhost_vdpa_free_domain() before vhost_vdpa_cleanup() in
vhost_vdpa_release() which results in NULL pointer de-reference.
Accordingly, moving the call to vhost_vdpa_free_domain() in
vhost_vdpa_cleanup() would makes sense. This will also help
detaching the dma device in error handling of vhost_vdpa_alloc_domain().

Yep, good cleanup!


This issue was observed on terminating QEMU with SIGQUIT.
