[PATCH v6 04/15] vfio/type1: Report iommu nesting info to userspace

This patch exports iommu nesting capability info to user space through
VFIO. Userspace is expected to check this info for supported uAPIs (e.g.
PASID alloc/free, bind page table, and cache invalidation) and the vendor
specific format information for first level/stage page table that will be
bound to.

The nesting info is available only after container set to be NESTED type.
Current implementation imposes one limitation - one nesting container
should include at most one iommu group. The philosophy of vfio container
is having all groups/devices within the container share the same IOMMU
context. When vSVA is enabled, one IOMMU context could include one 2nd-
level address space and multiple 1st-level address spaces. While the
2nd-level address space is reasonably sharable by multiple groups, blindly
sharing 1st-level address spaces across all groups within the container
might instead break the guest expectation. In the future sub/super container
concept might be introduced to allow partial address space sharing within
an IOMMU context. But for now let's go with this restriction by requiring
singleton container for using nesting iommu features. Below link has the
related discussion about this decision.

This patch also changes the NESTING type container behaviour. Something
that would have succeeded before will now fail: Before this series, if
user asked for a VFIO_IOMMU_TYPE1_NESTING, it would have succeeded even
if the SMMU didn't support stage-2, as the driver would have silently
fallen back on stage-1 mappings (which work exactly the same as stage-2
only since there was no nesting supported). After the series, we do check
for DOMAIN_ATTR_NESTING so if user asks for VFIO_IOMMU_TYPE1_NESTING and
the SMMU doesn't support stage-2, the ioctl fails. But it should be a good
fix and completely harmless. Detail can be found in below link as well.

v5 -> v6:
*) address comments against v5 from Eric Auger.
*) don't report nesting cap to userspace if the nesting_info->format is
invalid.

v4 -> v5:
*) address comments from Eric Auger.
*) return struct iommu_nesting_info for VFIO_IOMMU_TYPE1_INFO_CAP_NESTING as
cap is much "cheap", if needs extension in future, just define another cap.

v3 -> v4:
*) address comments against v3.

v1 -> v2:
*) added in v2
