It turns out that deferred default domain creation leaves a subtle
race window during iommu_device_register() wherein a client driver may
asynchronously probe in parallel and get as far as performing DMA API
operations with dma-direct, only to be switched to iommu-dma underfoot
once the default domain attachment finally happens, with obviously
disastrous consequences. Even the wonky of_iommu_configure() path is at
risk, since iommu_fwspec_init() will no longer defer client probe as the
instance ops are (necessarily) already registered, and the "replay"
iommu_probe_device() call can see dev->iommu_group already set and so
think there's nothing to do either.
Fortunately we already have the right tool in the right place in the
form of iommu_device_use_default_domain(), which just needs to ensure
that said default domain is actually ready to *be* used. Deferring the
client probe shouldn't have too much impact, given that this only
happens while the IOMMU driver is probing, and thus due to kick the
deferred probe list again once it finishes.

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 reStructuredText 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.
