No, everything should use it eventually. Eg you would convert the
Intel driver too. It makes the function always available in all error
unwind paths.

It ended up here:

arch/powerpc/kernel/iommu.c:    .default_domain = &spapr_tce_platform_domain,
drivers/iommu/fsl_pamu_domain.c:        .default_domain = &fsl_pamu_platform_domain,
drivers/iommu/iommufd/selftest.c:       .default_domain = &mock_blocking_domain,
drivers/iommu/s390-iommu.c:     .default_domain = &s390_iommu_platform_domain,
drivers/iommu/tegra-smmu.c:     .default_domain = &tegra_smmu_identity_domain,

And I have to try to remember why tegra-smmu had it.. So yes special
places only.

Me too
