iommu_attach_group() attaches all devices in a group to domain and then
sets group domain (group->domain). Current code (__iommu_attach_group())
does not handle error path. This creates problem as devices to domain
attachment is in inconsistent state.
Flow:
- During boot iommu attach devices to default domain
- Later some device driver (like amd/iommu_v2 or vfio) tries to attach
device to new domain.
- In iommu_attach_group() path we detach device from current domain.
Then it tries to attach devices to new domain.
- If it fails to attach device to new domain then device to domain link
is broken.
- iommu_attach_group() returns error.
- At this stage iommu_attach_group() caller thinks, attaching device to
new domain failed and devices are still attached to old domain.
- But in reality device to old domain link is broken. It will result
in all sort of failures (like IO page fault) later.
To recover from this situation, we need to attach all devices back to the
old domain. Also log warning if it fails attach device back to old domain.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
