there is semantics change.

here is the current code:

	case IOMMUFD_OBJ_HW_PAGETABLE: {
		struct iommufd_hw_pagetable *hwpt =
			container_of(pt_obj, struct iommufd_hw_pagetable, obj);

		rc = iommufd_device_do_attach(idev, hwpt);
		if (rc)
			goto out_put_pt_obj;

		mutex_lock(&hwpt->ioas->mutex);
		list_add_tail(&hwpt->hwpt_item, &hwpt->ioas->hwpt_list);
		mutex_unlock(&hwpt->ioas->mutex);
		break;
	}

Above means every attach to hwpt will try to add the hwpt to the
list tail. Isn't it a bug?

with this patch the hwpt is added to the list only when it's attached
by the first device, i.e. when iopt_table_add_domain() is called.

	if (!iommufd_hw_pagetable_has_group(hwpt, idev->group)) {
		rc = iommu_attach_group(hwpt->domain, idev->group);
		if (rc)
			goto out_iova;

		if (list_empty(&hwpt->devices)) {
			rc = iopt_table_add_domain(&hwpt->ioas->iopt,
						hwpt->domain);
			if (rc)
				goto out_detach;
			list_add_tail(&hwpt->hwpt_item, &hwpt->ioas->hwpt_list);
		}
	}

so it's actually a bug fix.
