Me too
Drivers should not make assumptions like this, the driver facing API
is clear, set_dev_pasid() is supposed to make the pasid domain the
translation for the pasid and replace whatever happened to be there.
Ideally hitlessly.
Good driver structure should not require caring what used to be
attached to the PASID.
