Cases like VFIO wish to attach a device to an existing domain that was
not allocated specifically from the device. This raises a condition
where the IOMMU driver can fail the domain attach because the domain and
device are incompatible with each other.

This is a soft failure that can be resolved by using a different domain.

Provide a dedicated errno EINVAL from the IOMMU driver during attach that
the reason why the attach failed is because of domain incompatibility.

VFIO can use this to know that the attach is a soft failure and it should
continue searching. Otherwise, the attach will be a hard failure and VFIO
will return the code to userspace.

Update kdocs to add rules of return value to the attach_dev op and APIs.
