Hi Robin,
   Thanks very much for your review. This gobal variable trouble me very
much. please also help check below.

     From Joerg's comment[0]: "This is not going to work. If you always
return the same domain the iommu core might re-initialize domain state
(and overwrite changed state)."

     It seems that I have to delete this here. then alloc iommu-domain
every time. and add some workaround code in mtk_iommu_attach_device like
our v3[1](reserve one as the m4u domain and delete the others).
Then the code maybe not very concise, but it could also work in the
future, Is it OK?

  I will add like this:
  if (type == IOMMU_DOMAIN_DMA && iommu_get_dma_cookie(&priv->domain)) {
       kfree(priv);
       return NULL;
  }

   the "dev" is different while enter this function, That is to say
every client device have its own iommu-group. is it right?

   Here all the devices has their own iommu-group, I only attach the
same iommu-domain for them due to our m4u HW. All the clients are in
M4U-HW's domain and there is only one pagetable here.

    I think the probe will run always earlier than mtk_hw_init.
    In the mtk_iommu_attach_device below, I add iommu_group_get to
guarantee the sequence.
//==================
static int mtk_iommu_attach_device(struct iommu_domain *domain,
				   struct device *dev)
{
	struct mtk_iommu_domain *priv = to_mtk_domain(domain);
	struct iommu_group *group;
	int ret;

	group = iommu_group_get(dev);
	if (!group)
		return 0;
	iommu_group_put(group);

	ret = mtk_iommu_init_domain_context(priv);
	if (ret)
		return ret;

	return mtk_iommu_config(priv, dev, true);
}
//======================
   After the probe done, It will enter bus_set_iommu->
mtk_iommu_add_device where will create iommu group for it.
then enter iommu_attach_group->mtk_iommu_attach_device again.
is this ok here?

About "how can you guarantee that happens before this 
driver is probed?"
->Sorry, I can't guarantee this. The domain_alloc is called by
arch_setup_dma_ops in the DMA core, I will change this depend on the
next DMA.
