The typical use case of the first one is like:
dev = vdev_to_dev(xa_load(&viommu->vdevs, (unsigned long)vdev_id));
so I am asking for:
/* Caller should lock via viommu->vdevs_rwsem with proper permission */

-----
And for the second one:
/*
* Convert a viommu to the encapsulated nesting parent domain. A caller must be
* aware of the life cycle of the viommu pointer: only call this function in a
* callback functions of viommu_alloc or a viommu op.
*/
