I'm looking at pci_dma_configure(), and I don't see the connection to
iommu_groups.

The new .suppress_auto_claim_dma_owner controls whether we call
iommu_device_set_dma_owner(). I guess you added
.suppress_auto_claim_dma_owner because iommu_device_set_dma_owner()
must be done *before* we call the driver's .probe() method?

Otherwise, we could call some new interface from .probe() instead of
adding the flag to struct device_driver.
