Yes, EBADFD is the right error code (it is a typo it was EBADF)

The concept is that other places using iommufd_ctx_from_file() should
forward the return code directly. vfio is probably the only thing that
is going to be multiplexing like this.

Yeah, that is probably a small bug:

-               group->iommufd = iommufd;
                ret = iommufd_vfio_compat_ioas_id(iommufd, &ioas_id);
+               if (ret) {
+                       iommufd_ctx_put(group->iommufd);
+                       goto out_unlock;
+               }
+
+               group->iommufd = iommufd;
                goto out_unlock;

	/*
 	 * With the container FD the iommu_group_claim_dma_owner() is done
	 * during SET_CONTAINER but for IOMMFD this is done during
	 * VFIO_GROUP_GET_DEVICE_FD. Meaning that with iommufd
	 * VFIO_GROUP_FLAGS_VIABLE could be set but GET_DEVICE_FD will fail due
	 * to viability.

Thanks,
