I don't know if anyone intends to implement it, but SMMUv2 supports
nesting translation without any PASID support. For that case the name
VFIO_IOMMU_BIND_GUEST_PGTBL without "PASID" anywhere makes more sense.
Ideally we'd also use a neutral name for the IOMMU API instead of
bind_gpasid(), but that's easier to change later.
