Looks like this patchset introduced an use-after-free on arm-smmu-v3.

Looking at the free stack,

iommu_release_device->iommu_group_remove_device

was introduced in 07/34 ("iommu: Add probe_device() and release_device()
call-backs").

Right, iommu_group_remove_device can tear down the group and call 
->domain_free before the driver has any knowledge of the last device 
going away via the ->release_device call.

I guess the question is do we simply flip the call order in 
iommu_release_device() so drivers can easily clean up their internal 
per-device state first, or do we now want them to be robust against 
freeing domains with devices still nominally attached?
