H_PUT_TCE_INDIRECT uses a 4K page with TCEs to allow handling up to 512
TCEs per hypercall. While it is a decent optimization, we rather share
less of secure VM memory so let's avoid sharing.

This only allows H_PUT_TCE_INDIRECT for normal (not secure) VMs.

This keeps using H_STUFF_TCE as it does not require sharing.

Possible alternatives are:

1. define FW_FEATURE_STUFFTCE (to allow H_STUFF_TCE) in addition to
FW_FEATURE_MULTITCE (make it only enable H_PUT_TCE_INDIRECT) and enable
only FW_FEATURE_STUFFTCE for SVM; pro = no SVM mention in iommu.c,
con = a FW feature bit with very limited use

2. disable FW_FEATURE_MULTITCE and loose H_STUFF_TCE which adds a delay
in booting process

Yes let's do that please.

Actually let's rename FW_FEATURE_MULTITCE to FW_FEATURE_PUT_TCE_IND (?)
to make it clear that's what it controls now.

You should just be able to add two entries to hypertas_fw_features_table
that both look for "hcall-multi-tce". And then the SVM code disables the
PUT_TCE_IND feature at some point.

cheers
