What about point 1? If dev2 and dev3 are already replaced when doing iommu_group_replace_domain() on dev1, their idev objects still have the old hwpt/iopt until user space does another two IOCTLs on them, right?

We have a complicated model for multi-device groups...

The first device in the group to change domains must move all the devices in the group

But userspace is still expected to run through and change all the other devices

So replace should be a NOP if the group is already linked to the right domain.

This patch needs to make sure that incosistency in the view betwen the iommu_group and the iommufd model doesn't cause a functional problem.
