Hmm, at commit 3faa52c03f44 the behavior is that I don't see a fault on
pin, maybe that's a bug. But trying to rebase to current top of tree,
now my DMA mapping gets an -EFAULT, so something is still funky :-\

Where is the user after free? Here I'm trying to map device mmio space
through the iommu, which we need to enable p2p when the user owns
multiple devices. The device is owned by the user, bound to vfio-pci,
and can't be unbound while the user has it open. The iommu mappings
are torn down on release. I guess I don't understand the problem.

Ok, thanks,
