My intended use was for the caller to get an additional reference when
they're already holding one. So this should always succeed and I'd prefer
a WARN_ON if the ioasid isn't valid rather than returning an error. But if
you intend to add a state to ioasids between dropping refcount and free,
then a return value makes sense.
Thanks,
