If iommu_device_set_dma_owner(dev_a) fails changes dynamically
depending on what iommu_device_set_dma_owner(dev_b, DMA_OWNER_USER)
have been done.

The whole point here is that doing a
 iommu_device_set_dma_owner(dev_b, DMA_OWNER_USER)
needs to revoke kernel usage from a whole bunch of other devices in
the same group.

revoking kernel usage means it needs to ensure that no driver is bound
and prevent future drivers from being bound.

iommu_setup_dma_ops() is something done once early on in boot, not at
every driver probe, so I don't see how it can help??
