The core VFIO infrastructure more or less allows VFIO devices to work
on any normal guest PCI host bridge (PHB) without extra logic.
However, the "spapr-pci-host-bridge" device (as opposed to the special
"spapr-pci-vfio-host-bridge" device) breaks this by using a partially
KVM accelerated implementation of the guest kernel IOMMU which won't
work with VFIO devices, without additional kernel support.
This patch allows VFIO devices to work on the spapr-pci-host-bridge,
by having it switch off KVM TCE acceleration when a VFIO device is
added to the PHB (either on startup, or by hotplug).
