Directly exporting this function for external use seems unsafe. If the
caller is the kernel driver for this device, it's fine because default
domain remains unchanged during the life cycle of the driver. Otherwise,
using this function may cause UAF. Keep in mind that group's default
domain could be changed through sysfs.

However, iommu_get_domain_for_dev() has already done so and has been
exported. Maybe I'm worried too much. :-)
