FWIW, I was thinking afterwords that domain_alloc_paging() probably
should have been:

(domain_alloc_paging *)(struct iommu_device *iommu, struct iommu_group *group)

Most drivers can use the iommu and ignore the group, a few special
ones can do the needed reduce operation across the group.

We can get to that later when we get deeper into the PASID troubles,
it also requires the deferal of the domain creation like the bus code
probe does but the fwnode path doesn't :\
