   "IOMMU: enable intel_iommu map and unmap notifiers"
   https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2016-11/msg01453.html

However I removed/fixed some content, and added my own codes.

Instead of translate() every page for iotlb invalidations (which is
slower), we walk the pages when needed and notify in a hook function.

This patch enables vfio devices for VT-d emulation.

And, since we already have vhost DMAR support via device-iotlb, a
natural benefit that this patch brings is that vt-d enabled vhost can
live even without ATS capability now. Though more tests are needed.

Michael, if you want to apply this series, I would propose a better title for this patch e.g "cowork with remote IOMMU/IOTLB"

Thanks
