Hmm, that's sort of what I expected, but I don't like it. I don't
think initializing IOMMU drivers after probing PCI devices is the
optimal design. As soon as we add a PCI device, a driver can bind to
it and start using it. If we set up an IOMMU after a driver has
claimed the device, something is going to break. The driver may have
already made DMA mappings that would now be invalid.
IOMMU drivers are logically between the CPU and the device, so they
should be initialized before the device is enumerated. I know there
are probably some legacy issues behind this design, and I know it has
nothing to do with your patch, so this is not a very constructive
comment.
I just want to be on record that I'm not a fan of this out-of-order
initialization, and I don't like the notification scheme for handling
device hotplug either. Notifiers make the code hard to read, and you
can't tell what order things happen in. It just seems like a hack to
connect things together when they should really have been designed to
be more tightly integrated from the beginning.
