Conceptually I think this would work for QEMU anyway (it always sets the kvm
before we open the device).  I tried to test the idea quickly but couldn't
get the following to apply on vfio-next or your vfio_group_locking -- but I
understand what you're trying to do so I'll re-work and try it out.

I created it on 8c9350e9bf43de1ebab3cc8a80703671e6495ab4 which is the
vfio_group_locking.. I can send you a github if it helps

Thanks -- I was able to successfully test your proposed idea (+ some changes to make it compile :)) on top of vfio_group_locking along with a modified version of my zdev series. I also tried it out with vfio-ap successfully, but have nothing to test GVT with.

That said, this has caused me to realize that 'iommu: iommu_group_claim_dma_owner() must always assign a domain' breaks s390x vfio-pci :( I wonder if it is due to the way s390x PCI currently switches between dma ops and iommu ops. It looks like it breaks vfio-ap mdevs too, but I know less about that -- I will have to investigate both more tomorrow.
