From: Lu Baolu <baolu.lu@linux.intel.com>

Introduce a new domain type for a user space I/O address, which is nested
on top of another user space address represented by a UNMANAGED domain. The
mappings of a nested domain are managed by user space software, therefore
it's unnecessary to have map/unmap callbacks. But the updates of the PTEs
in the nested domain page table must be propagated to the caches on both
IOMMU (IOTLB) and devices (DevTLB).

The nested domain is allocated by the domain_alloc_user op, and attached
to the device through the existing iommu_attach_device/group() interfaces.

An new domain op, named iotlb_sync_user is added for the userspace to flush
the hardware caches for a nested domain through iommufd. No wrapper for it
as it's only supposed to be used by iommufd.

Following the remarks from Jason and Robin in their first looks
at the nested SMMU changes, perhaps we should rename this op
"iotlb_sync_user" back to "cache_invalidate_user" or so, since
the type for the caches on VT-d isn't confined to IOTLB either.

Thanks
