I'm still not following - the next line right after that is "if (type)", 
which means it won't touch gtype, and if that happens for every 
iteration, probe_alloc_default_domain() subsequently hits its "if 
(!gtype.type)" condition and still ends up with iommu_def_domain_type. 
This *was* one of the other two callers I was talking about (the second 
being iommu_change_dev_def_domain()), and in fact on second look I think 
your proposed change will actually break this logic, since it's 
necessary to differentiate between a specific type being requested for 
the given device, and a "don't care" response which only implies to use 
the global default type if it's still standing after *all* the 
appropriate devices have been queried.

Hmm, but if that's the case, wouldn't it still be a problem anyway if 
the end result was IOMMU_DOMAIN_IDENTITY? I can't claim to fully 
understand the x86 swiotlb and no_iommu dance, but nothing really stands 
out to give me confidence that it handles the passthrough options correctly.
