Could you please explain why we shouldn't change default-domain for an iommu group that has multiple devices?

I am asking this particularly because the patch set I am working on allows to change default-domain for an iommu group that has multiple devices. The pre-requisite being that all the devices in the group should already be unbounded from the device driver and the default-domain preferences of all the devices in the group shouldn't have conflicting types i.e. some devices cannot say they *only* need identity domain while other devices in the same group say that they *only* need to be in DMA domain. In this case, we will not be able to decide upon a default-domain for the iommu group.

Great! I will take a look at it.

Regards,
Sai
