This mixes two different cases:

- another preserved device has already reserved the same DID.
- the DID is not reserved because ida_alloc_range() failed (for example,
   memory allocation failure).

Case #1 is expected. Case #2 must not be ignored, because it means
restore failed. So this should probably be something like (not tested):

	mutex_lock(&iommu->did_lock);
	if (ida_find_first_range(&iommu->domain_ida, id, id) >= 0)
		BUG_ON(ida_alloc_range(&iommu->domain_ida, id, id, GFP_KERNEL) < 0)
	mutex_unlock(&iommu->did_lock);

?

By the way, why GFP_ATOMIC here at all?

This uses iommu_ser->intel.restored to prevent restoring the root and
context tables multiple times. For this to work safely, iommu_ser-
 >intel.restored must be 0 the first time restore runs after kexec.

The problem is: this field is inside struct iommu_hw_ser, and that
struct is allocated in the old kernel. How to ensure that the previous
kernel has zeroed this out? Maybe I’m overthinking this.
