Looks the atu is shared by all devices behind and can only serve one
I/O address space. The atu registers only keep information about
iova ranges without any device notation. That is probably the reason
why both attach/detach() don't touch hardware.
iiuc then this suggests there should be only one iommu group per atu,
instead of using generic_device_group() to create one group per
device.

I guess it's a blocking behavior since that register tracks which iova range
register is valid.

BLOCKING should not be used as a default domain type for DMA API
which needs either a DMA or IDENTITY type.
