Hi Ben,

(Please note I am unfamiliar with this code so missing some context.)

It should not be necessary to offline the control domain if attempt to
online it failed but removing it from the ctrl_domains list is necessary. What
happens to memory dom points to?

This error path is unexpected to me. From what I can tell, if there is a problem
initializing the monitor domain this flow will undo both monitor and control domain,
even if initialization of control domain was successful. In this case:
- Flow jumps to error path from within the if (exposed_mon_capable) block and proceeds
  to do control domain cleanup without considering whether control domain was initialized
  or not. That is, does not take exposed_alloc_capable into account
- Control domain cleanup seems to be partial, for example, should it remove domain from ctrl_domains list?
- On failure there is dom = ERR_PTR(err) but I cannot see where this memory is freed in both
  the monitor and control domain error paths.

On success, should cpu be added to the respective headers' cpumask?
