ho, yet another combination. This seems to be a problem with 
exynos_iommu,
ipmmu-vmsa, mtk_iommu_v1 which calls the arm_iommu_attach_device with 
its
own custom mapping. They are calling arm_iommu_attach_device from the
add_device callback and that is not always replayed when the reprobe 
happens
and these archs are storing the old mapping data in private structures 
which
might not be cleared in the teardown path. I will post the fix that you 
have
suggested.
