In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

iommu: Fix WARN_ON in __iommu_group_set_domain_nofail() due to reset

In __iommu_group_set_domain_internal(), concurrent domain attachments are
rejected when any device in the group is recovering. This is necessary to
fence concurrent attachments to a multi-device group where devices might
share the same RID due to PCI DMA alias quirks, but triggers the WARN_ON in
__iommu_group_set_domain_nofail().

Other IOMMU_SET_DOMAIN_MUST_SUCCEED callers in detach/teardown paths, such
as __iommu_group_set_core_domain and __iommu_release_dma_ownership, should
not be rejected, as the domain would be freed anyway in these nofail paths
while group->domain is still pointing to it. So pci_dev_reset_iommu_done()
could trigger a UAF when re-attaching group->domain.

Honor the IOMMU_SET_DOMAIN_MUST_SUCCEED flag, allowing the callers through
the group->recovery_cnt fence, so as to update the group->domain pointer.
Instead add a gdev->blocked check in the device iteration loop, to prevent
any concurrent per-device detachment.
