There are some use cases in which the dom0less domUs need to have
the XEN_DOMCTL_CDF_iommu set at the domain construction time. For
example, the dynamic dtbo feature allows the domain to be assigned
a device that is behind the IOMMU at runtime. For these use cases,
we need to have a way to specify the domain will need the IOMMU
mapping at domain construction time.

Introduce a "passthrough" DT property for Dom0less DomUs following
the same entry as the xl.cfg. Currently only provide two options,
i.e. "enable" and "disable". Set the XEN_DOMCTL_CDF_iommu at domain
construction time based on the property.

v3:
- Use a separate variable to cache the condition from the "passthrough"
  flag separately to improve readability.
- Update the doc to explain the default condition more clearly.
v2:
- New patch to replace the original patch in v1:
  "[PATCH 03/15] xen/arm: Always enable IOMMU"

+    A string property specifying whether IOMMU mappings are enabled for the
+    domain and hence whether it will be enabled for passthrough hardware.
+    Possible property values are:
+
+    - "enabled"
+    IOMMU mappings are enabled for the domain. Note that this option is the

+    for the domain.
+
+    - "disabled"
+    IOMMU mappings are disabled for the domain and so hardware may not be

+    and the user does not provide the device partial device tree for the domain.

 Under the "xen,domain" compatible node, one or more sub-nodes are present
 for the DomU kernel and ramdisk.
