Yes, its certainly not optimal, but the code that runs in there also
runs at iommu hotplug time, so we can't just remove the locking there
entirely.

On the other side the warning you reported is a false-positive, it can
never dead-lock because the reverse lock-order happens only at
initialization time, but I don't know how to silence it otherwise.
