I think that the master still owns an STE when attached to a
nested domain. Though an IOMMU_DOMAIN_NESTED iommu_domain is
an opaque object to the STE in the guest, the host still has
a real STE for the nested configuration somewhere -- and it's
likely still to be owned by the master that's attached to the
opaque NESTED iommu_domain in the host kernel.

We here pass in an s1_cfg ptr because we expect someone else
rather than the master could own the s1_cfg?
But the final codeline by the end of this series seems that
only master owns an s1_cfg. So perhaps we could re-organize
the patches to clean this away, as the cfg always comes from
a master?

I am a bit confused by this naming. If only master would own
an s1_cfg, perhaps we can just make it "s1_cfg" and drop the
s1_cfg pointer in the next patch.
Thanks
