Currently we rely on registering all our instances before initially allowing any .probe_device calls via bus_set_iommu(). In preparation for phasing out the latter, make sure we won't inadvertently return success for a device associated with a known but not yet registered instance, otherwise we'll run straight into iommu_group_get_for_dev() trying to use NULL ops. That also highlights an issue with intel_iommu_get_resv_regions() taking dmar_global_lock from within a section where intel_iommu_init() already holds it, which already exists via probe_acpi_namespace_devices() when an ANDD device is probed, but gets more obvious with the upcoming change to iommu_device_register(). Since they are both read locks it manages not to deadlock in practice, and a more in-depth rework of this locking is underway, so no attempt is made to address it here.

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.
