Lu Baolu 70693f4708 vfio: Set DMA ownership for VFIO devices
Claim group dma ownership when an IOMMU group is set to a container,
and release the dma ownership once the iommu group is unset from the
container.

This change disallows some unsafe bridge drivers to bind to non-ACS
bridges while devices under them are assigned to user space. This is an
intentional enhancement and possibly breaks some existing
configurations. The recommendation to such an affected user would be
that the previously allowed host bridge driver was unsafe for this use
case and to continue to enable assignment of devices within that group,
the driver should be unbound from the bridge device or replaced with the
pci-stub driver.

For any bridge driver, we consider it unsafe if it satisfies any of the
following conditions:

  1) The bridge driver uses DMA. Calling pci_set_master() or calling any
     kernel DMA API (dma_map_*() and etc.) is an indicate that the
     driver is doing DMA.

  2) If the bridge driver uses MMIO, it should be tolerant to hostile
     userspace also touching the same MMIO registers via P2P DMA
     attacks.

If the bridge driver turns out to be a safe one, it could be used as
before by setting the driver's .driver_managed_dma field, just like what
we have done in the pcieport driver.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
