This patch series aims to implement VFIO support for platform devices that
reside behind an IOMMU. Examples of such devices are devices behind an ARM
SMMU, or behind a Samsung Exynos System MMU.

The API used is based on the existing VFIO API that is also used with PCI
devices. Only devices that include a basic set of IRQs and memory regions are
targeted; devices with complex relationships with other devices on a device
tree are not taken into account at this stage.

This patch series may be applied on the following series/patches:
 - [PATCH 1/1] iommu/arm-smmu: fix ARM_SMMU_FEAT_TRANS_OPS condition
 - [PATCH v4 0/6] vfio: type1: support for ARM SMMUS with VFIO_IOMMU_TYPE1

A copy can be cloned from the branch vfio-platform-v14 at:
https://github.com/virtualopensystems/linux-kvm-arm.git

This serie has been tested on a DMA PL330 with ARM FastModels.

Changes since v13:
 - Rebased on linux v4.0-rc1
 - Re-added support for ARM AMBA devices
 - Baptiste Reynal is the new maintainer of this serie
Changes since v12:
 - Reorder chunks to be bisect-able
Changes since v11:
 - Drop support for ARM AMBA devices
 - vfio_platform_private.h is now self-contained
 - Fix masked IRQ initialization
Changes since v10:
 - Check if interrupt is already masked when setting a new trigger
 - Fixed kasprintf with unchecked return value in VFIO AMBA driver
Changes since v9:
 - Reworked the splitting of the patches that decouple virqfd from PCI
 - Some styling issues and typos
 - Removed superfluous includes
 - AMBA devices are now named vfio-amba- suffixed by the AMBA device id
 - Several other cleanups and fixes
Changes since v8:
 - Separate irq handler for edge and level triggered interrupts
 - Mutex based lock for VFIO fd open/release
 - Fixed bug where the first region of a platform device wasn't exposed
 - Read only regions can be MMAPed only read only
 - Code cleanups
Changes since v7:
 - Some initial placeholder functionality for PIO resources
 - Cleaned up code for IRQ triggering, masking and unmasking
 - Some functionality has been removed from this series and posted separately:
   - VFIO_IOMMU_TYPE1 support for ARM SMMUs
   - IOMMU NOEXEC patches
   - driver_override functionality for AMBA devices
 - Several fixes
Changes since v6:
 - Integrated support for AMBA devices
 - Numerous cleanups and fixes
Changes since v5:
 - Full eventfd support for IRQ masking and unmasking.
 - Changed IOMMU_EXEC to IOMMU_NOEXEC, along with related flags in VFIO.
 - Other fixes based on reviewer comments.
Changes since v4:
 - Use static offsets for each region in the VFIO device fd
 - Include patch in the series for the ARM SMMU to expose IOMMU_EXEC
   availability via IOMMU_CAP_DMA_EXEC
 - Rebased on VFIO multi domain support:
   - IOMMU_EXEC is now available if at least one IOMMU in the container
     supports it
   - Expose IOMMU_EXEC if available via the capability VFIO_IOMMU_PROT_EXEC
 - Some bug fixes
Changes since v3:
 - Use Kim Phillips' driver_probe_device()
Changes since v2:
 - Fixed Read/Write and MMAP on device regions
 - Removed dependency on Device Tree
 - Interrupts support
 - Interrupt masking/unmasking
 - Automask level sensitive interrupts
 - Introduced VFIO_DMA_MAP_FLAG_EXEC
 - Code clean ups
