Here the NULL domain is on purpose. In kdump kernel if iommu is
pre-enabled, just stop attach the device to domain until the device
driver init. So here in driver init when call get_domain(), if found
get_dev_data(dev)->defer_attach is true, we just do the attachment of
device to domain.

Not sure if I got what you mean about 'callers'.
