Hi folks,
This series tries to optimize the uses of two locks in the Intel IOMMU
driver:
- The intel_iommu::lock is used to protect the IOMMU resources shared by
devices. They include the IOMMU root and context tables, the pasid
tables and the domain IDs.
- The global device_domain_lock is used to protect the global and the
per-domain device tracking lists.
The optimization includes:
- Remove the unnecessary global device tracking list;
- Remove unnecessary locking;
- Reduce the scope of the lock as much as possible, that is, use the
lock only where necessary;
- The global lock is transformed into a local lock to improve the
efficiency.
This series is also available on github:

Your comments and suggestions are very appreciated.
Best regards,
baolu
