The basic flow for iommu_group_for_dev is:
iommu_group_get_for_dev
|-> iommu_group_get : increase reference count by 1.
return group;
|-> ops->device_group : Init/increase reference count to/by 1.
iommu_group_add_device : Increase reference count by 1.
return group;
We can see that ops->device_group and iommu_group_add_device will together
increase the iommu group reference count by 2. Actually we only need 1,
but not 2. So we need add iommu_group_put after iommu_group_add_device
to make sure iommu_group_get_for_dev only increase reference count by 1.

Hmm, I don't think this is correct either:
(1) It doesn't help the arm-smmu driver (which deals with platform
devices too)
(2) It breaks IOMMU drivers that currently have the explicit put already
(e.g. amd-iommu.c:init_iommu_group)
The easiest way for you to proceed is to extend your original patch so
that it also adds an iommu_group_put to the arm-smmu-v3 driver after
a successful iommu_group_get_for_dev.

I am not sure if the following patch is what you preferred. But this means
that iommu_grou_get_for_dev will increase the group reference count by 2, when
need to create a new group?

The premise seems incorrect to me. In the first case where
iommu_group_get() provides a group, the reference is increased by 1, but
the device is already a member of the group and therefore already
increases the reference count of the group by 1. The minimum group
reference at that point is therefore 2. In the second case, the group
is created, which gives us our first reference, and the device is added,
giving us our second reference. Therefore the minimum reference count
is also 2. If we decrement it, allowing the caller to get the group
with a single reference and they release that reference, the group will
be destroyed even though it has a device member. One reference to the
group is for the caller, the other reference is for the device contained
in the group. Thanks,
Alex

Yeah. The minimum group reference at that point is 2.

Yeah.

Thanks. Then Caller of iommu_group_get_for_dev should decrease the count by 1.
Thanks,
Peng.
