but this is an op for default domain which must have been attached
to RID2PASID and any compatibility check between this domain and device
should be passed.

We can have another set_pasid for unmanaged which then need similar
check as prepare_domain_attach_device() does.

If the domain still has attached device (due to this pasid usage) how could
domain id be freed?
