Hardware platforms usually describe the IOMMU topology using either
device-tree pointers or vendor-specific ACPI tables.  For virtual
platforms that don't provide a device-tree, the virtio-iommu device
contains a description of the endpoints it manages.  That information
allows us to probe endpoints after the IOMMU is probed (possibly as late
as userspace modprobe), provided it is discovered early enough.

Add a hook to pci_dma_configure(), which returns -EPROBE_DEFER if the
endpoint is managed by a vIOMMU that will be loaded later, or 0 in any
other case to avoid disturbing the normal DMA configuration methods.
When CONFIG_VIRTIO_IOMMU_TOPOLOGY isn't selected, the call to
virt_dma_configure() is compiled out.

As long as the information is consistent, platforms can provide both a
device-tree and a built-in topology, and the IOMMU infrastructure is
able to deal with multiple DMA configuration methods.

If present the DT configuration should take precedence over this built-in
method, so the earlier it is called the better. virt_dma_configure()
currently gives up if the device already has iommu_ops (well, still calls
setup_dma_ops() which is safe enough, but I think I'll change that to have
virt_iommu_setup() return NULL if iommu_ops are present).

I don't have the full picture of the changes you intend for
{of,acpi}_iommu_configure(), do you think checking the validity of
dev->iommu_fwspec will remain sufficient to have both methods coexist?

Thanks,
Jean
