VMD child devices must use the VMD endpoint's ID as the requester. Because of this, there needs to be a way to link the parent VMD endpoint's iommu group and associated mappings to the VMD child devices such that attaching and detaching child devices modify the endpoint's mappings, while preventing early detaching on a singular device removal or unbinding. The reassignment of individual VMD child devices devices to VMs is outside the scope of VMD, but may be implemented in the future. For now it is best to prevent any such attempts. This patch prevents VMD child devices from returning an IOMMU, which prevents it from exposing an iommu_group sysfs directories and allowing subsequent binding by userspace-access drivers such as VFIO.
