I thought that perhaps I should elaborate on this a bit since I have a
few ideas on how the API could be enhanced.

I think it might make sense to introduce an explicit object for an IOMMU
master attachment. Maybe something like:
struct iommu_master {
struct iommu *iommu;
struct device *dev;
...
};
iommu_attach() could then return a pointer to that attachment and the
IOMMU user driver could subsequently use that as a handle to access
other parts of the API.
The reason is that if we ever need to support more than a single master
interface (and perhaps even multiple master interfaces on different
IOMMUs) for a single device, then we need a way for the IOMMU user to
differentiate between its master interfaces.

For reasons explained above, I also think that it would be a good idea
to modify the iommu_ops functions to take a struct iommu * as their
first argument. This may become important when one driver needs to
support multiple IOMMU devices. With the current API drivers have to
rely on global variables to track the driver-specific context. As far as
I can tell, only .domain_init(), .add_device(), .remove_device() and
.device_group(). .domain_init() could set up a pointer to struct iommu
in struct iommu_domain so the functions dealing with domains could gain
access to the IOMMU device via that pointer.
