With this, vfio_group.pinned_page_dirty_scope is effectively a dead
field on the struct for groups on the external_domain group list and
handled specially. That's not great.
If you actually want to make more than a trivial improvement to scope
tracking, what about making a counter on our struct vfio_iommu for all
the non-pinned-page (ie. all-dma) scope groups attached to the
container. Groups on the external domain would still set their group
dirty scope to pinned pages, groups making use of an iommu domain would
have an all-dma scope initially and increment that counter when
attached. Groups that still have an all-dma scope on detach would
decrement the counter. If a group changes from all-dma to pinned-page
scope, the counter is also decremented. We'd never need to search
across group lists. Thanks,
