[PATCH 3/4] vhost-vdpa: introduce IOTLB_PERSIST backend feature bit

[Si-Wei Liu <si-wei.liu@oracle.com>]

Userspace needs this feature flag to distinguish if vhost-vdpa
iotlb in the kernel supports persistent IOTLB mapping across
device reset. Without it, userspace has no way to tell apart
if it's running on an older kernel, which could silently drop
all iotlb mapping across vDPA reset.

There are 3 cases that backend may claim this feature bit on:

- parent device that has to work with platform IOMMU
- parent device with on-chip IOMMU that has the expected
  .reset_map support in driver
- parent device with vendor specific IOMMU implementation
  that explicitly declares the specific backend feature

The reason why .reset_map is being one of the pre-condition for
persistent iotlb is because without it, vhost-vdpa can't switch
back iotlb to the initial state later on, especially for the
on-chip IOMMU case which starts with identity mapping at device
creation. virtio-vdpa requires on-chip IOMMU to perform 1:1
passthrough translation from PA to IOVA as-is to begin with, and
.reset_map is the only means to turn back iotlb to the identity
mapping mode after vhost-vdpa is gone.
