This is because iommu_remove_dt_device() is called without taking the
dt_host_lock. Fix the issue by taking and releasing the lock properly.

Looking at the code, we are not modifying the device_node, so shouldn't this be a read_lock()?

That said, even though either fix your issue, I am not entirely convinced this is the correct position for the lock. From my understanding, dt_host_lock is meant to ensure that the DT node will not disappear behind your back. So in theory, shouldn't the lock be taken as soon as you get hold of device_node?
