I actually ran this with lockdep and didn't generate a warning; hopefully I had it configured correctly. Also, we'll soon be unmapping the guest any time we remove the last assigned device so this will no longer be a vm destruction-only path. We can just as easily race adding new mappings or removing already removed ones on that path. We also acquire kvm->lock in the mapping path: kvm_vm_ioctl_assign_device() { mutex_lock(&kvm->lock); if (!kvm->arch.iommu_domain) { r = kvm_iommu_map_guest(kvm); which by inspection and the lock ordering note in kvm_main seems to be ok.
