[RFC] iommu: arm-smmu: correct reference count

iommu_group_alloc will initialize the reference count for group to 1.
iommu_group_add_device also increase the group reference count,
if nothing bad happends. And we need to add iommu_group_put to
decrease the reference count for group.

Not sure whether my understanding is correct or not. I checked rockchip-iommu.c
exynos-iommu.c and fsl_pamu_domain.c, and they all have iommu_group_put after
iommu_group_add_device.
