Would you mind elaborating why arm_smmu_get_id_from_invs() can't
return vsmmu->vmid to share with a naked S2 STE?
A "naked" S2 domain doesn't have a pointer to the vsmmu, so it is
impossible to get vsmmu->vmid.
An S2 parent domain should be per VM. And a vSMMU on top of an S2
should be per SMMU. So, it could have stored a list of vSMMUs and
device attaching to a naked S2 could match its master->smmu with
vSMMU->smmu in the list?
That would cause lifecycle problems if the vSMMU is destroyed
while the nake S2 is still attached and trying to use the vSMMU's
VMID.
