[RFC PATCH v6 06/20] vfio: introduce the VFIO_DMA_MAP_FLAG_NOEXEC flag

[Antonios Motakis <a.motakis-lrHrjnjw1UfHK3s98zE1ajGjJy/sRE9J@public.gmane.org>]

We introduce the VFIO_DMA_MAP_FLAG_NOEXEC flag to the VFIO dma map call,
and expose its availability via the capability VFIO_IOMMU_PROT_NOEXEC.
This way the user can control whether the XN flag will be set on the
requested mappings. The IOMMU_NOEXEC flag needs to be available for all
the IOMMUs of the container used.
