If I understand correctly this will be called for each device that has
an IOMMU master interface and will end up creating a new mapping for
each of the devices. Each of these mappings will translate to a domain
in the IOMMU API, which in turn is a separate address space.

How do you envision to support use-cases where a set of devices need to
share a single domain? This is needed for example in DRM where SoCs
often have a set of hardware blocks (each with its own master interface)
that compose the display device. On Tegra for example there are two
display controllers that need access to the same IOVA domain so that
they can scan out framebuffers.
