[PATCH 0/8] Initial support for SMMUv3 nested translation

This brings support for the IOMMFD ioctls:
- IOMMU_GET_HW_INFO
- IOMMU_HWPT_ALLOC_NEST_PARENT
- IOMMU_DOMAIN_NESTED
- ops->enforce_cache_coherency()
This is quite straightforward as the nested STE can just be built in the
special NESTED domain op and fed through the generic update machinery.
The design allows the user provided STE fragment to control several
aspects of the translation, including putting the STE into a "virtual
bypass" or a aborting state. This duplicates functionality available by
other means, but it allows trivially preserving the VMID in the STE as we
eventually move towards the VIOMMU owning the VMID.
Nesting support requires the system to either support S2FWB or the
stronger CANWBS ACPI flag. This is to ensure the VM cannot bypass the
cache and view incoherent data, currently VFIO lacks any cache flushing
that would make this safe.
Yan has a series to add some of the needed infrastructure for VFIO cache
flushing here:

Which may someday allow relaxing this further.
Remove VFIO_TYPE1_NESTING_IOMMU since it was never used and superseded by
this.
This is the first series in what will be several to complete nesting
support. At least:
- IOMMU_RESV_SW_MSI related fixups
- VIOMMU object support to allow ATS invalidations
- vCMDQ hypervisor support for direct invalidation queue assignment
- KVM pinned VMID using VIOMMU for vBTM
- Cross instance S2 sharing
- Virtual Machine Structure using VIOMMU (for vMPAM?)
- Fault forwarding support through IOMMUFD's fault fd for vSVA
It is enough to allow significant amounts of qemu work to progress.
