yes but here we are talking about some bug scenario.

at least it'd look safer if we always try to unmap the entire domain i.e.:

static void domain_exit(struct dmar_domain *domain)
{
-
-       /* Remove associated devices and clear attached or cached domains */
-       domain_remove_dev_info(domain);

        if (domain->pgd) {
                LIST_HEAD(freelist);

                domain_unmap(domain, 0, DOMAIN_MAX_PFN(domain->gaw), &freelist);
                put_pages_list(&freelist);
        }

+       if (WARN_ON(!list_empty(&domain->devices)))
+               return;

        kfree(domain);
}

Thanks
