Hmm, we've got what looks to be a set of magazines forming a plausible 
depot list (or at least the tail end of one):

ffff8881411f9000 -> ffff8881261c1000

ffff8881261c1000 -> ffff88812be26400

ffff88812be26400 -> ffff8188392ec000

ffff8188392ec000 -> ffff8881a5301000

ffff8881a5301000 -> NULL

which I guess has somehow become detached from its rcache->depot without 
being freed properly? However I'm struggling to see any conceivable way 
that could happen which wouldn't already be more severely broken in 
other ways as well (i.e. either general memory corruption or someone 
somehow still trying to use the IOVA domain while it's being torn down).

Out of curiosity, does reverting just patch #2 alone make a difference? 
And is your workload doing anything "interesting" in relation to IOVA 
domain lifetimes, like creating and destroying SR-IOV virtual functions, 
changing IOMMU domain types via sysfs, or using that horrible vdpa 
thing, or are you seeing this purely from regular driver DMA API usage?

Thanks,
Robin.
