Yes, DMAR fault messages as following came out:
[  354.939896] DMAR: DMAR:[DMA Read] Request device [03:00.1]fault addr
1fdfe80000
[  354.939896] DMAR:[fault reason 02] Present bit in context entry is clear

Tried this patch, and the same DMAR fault message came out.

Guess it is because of the iommu code path for hotplug devices. If a hotplug
device is rescanned after removal, iommu_bus_notifier will be called as part
of the notifier chains to handle BUS_NOTIFY_ADD_DEVICE event. Along the code
path, intel_iommu_ops->add_device() created an iommu group for this hotplug
device, but failed to create an iommu domain because of the default domain
type IOMMU_DOMAIN_IDENTITY imposed by current IOMMU command line option got
declined by intel_iommu_ops->domain_alloc().

In your patch, function find_or_alloc_domain() is not even in the code path
of BUS_NOTIFY_ADD_DEVICE event notifier chain.

Please let us know if your have more concerns and suggestions.

Best Regards,
James
