No. You are right. When any alias device is hot-removed from the system,
the shared RID2PASID will be cleared without any notification to other
devices. Hence any DMAs from those devices are blocked.

We still have a lot to do for sharing pasid table among alias devices.
Before we arrive there, let's remove it for now.
