NAK. Read the comment - this is an internal helper for iommu-dma 
(currently the only IOMMU_DOMAIN_DMA implementation) and is definitely 
not for random drivers to abuse. In fact it should really move to 
iommu-priv.h now that we have that.

If you want to do sketchy things with your device's DMA domain then use 
the public iommu_get_domain_for_dev() interface like everyone else.

Thanks,
Robin.
