Sorry for my ignorance, but I don't understand what IOMMU groups are
supposed to be or how to make use of them. It seems like a common idiom
is to simply allocate a new group and add a device to it in the IOMMU's
->add_device() callback, but I fail to see the reason for that.

Can anybody point me to documentation about this? I've looked and I did
not find anything.

Thierry
