device_lock() was used in iommu_group_store_type() to prevent the devices in an iommu group from being attached by any device driver. On the other hand, in order to avoid lock race between group->mutex and device_lock(), it limited the usage scenario to the singleton groups. We already have the DMA ownership scheme to avoid driver attachment and group->mutex ensures that device ops are always valid, there's no need for device_lock() anymore. Remove device_lock() and the singleton group limitation.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
