There is never just a single PASID for a domain. That should not be
part of any of our APIs.

If we want to provide core code aide then the core code should have a
means to help the drvier maintain the attachment database for the
domain.

Eg maintain the list of RIDs, PASIDs, etc that the domain is linked
to.

But this is such trivial code I'm not sure it helps much

Yes, attaching the notifier and accessing the arch specific mm->pgd
should be the only driver touches of the mm_struct..
