If it is only for external use then why is it exported?

I would add something like:

Callers must hold a lock around this function, and both
iommu_attach/detach_dev_pasid() whenever a domain of type is being
manipulated. This API does not internally resolve races with
attach/detach.

This has nothing to do with RCU

xa_lock() is used to ensure that the domain pointer remains valid
while we check the type since it blocks concurrent xa_erase().
