I guess this simplifies the body of the code a lot. Given this, I would
revise the code I suggested in response to a previous patch, to
something more like:

offs = HWGRP_ASID_REG(i);
val = smmu_read(smmu, offs);
if (on) {
if (WARN_ON(val && val != new_val))
return -ENODEV;
memcpy(c->hwgrp, map, sizeof(u64));
} else {
WARN_ON(val);
}
smmu_write(smmu, val, offs);

That means that:

a) No error is returned when the ASIDs don't match. Surely you still
want to return an error?

b) "skip" skips setting up all HWGRP IDs for the device, whereas perhaps
only 1 was shared yet the rest still need to be set up. If you really do
want to ignore the error, then surely you want "continue;" here not
"goto skip;"?
