They're not strictly equivalent: this check works around a temporary issue
with the IOMMU core, which calls map/unmap before the domain is finalized.
Once we merge domain_alloc() and finalize(), then this check disappears,
but we still need to test nr_endpoints in map/unmap to handle detached
domains (and we still need to fix the synchronization of nr_endpoints
against attach/detach). That's why I preferred doing this on viommu and
keeping it in one place.

Thanks,
Jean
