We introduce a new IOMMU Memory Region attribute, IOMMU_ATTR_VFIO_NESTED
which tells whether the virtual IOMMU requires physical nested
stages for VFIO integration. Intel virtual IOMMU supports Caching
Mode and does not require 2 stages at physical level. However virtual
ARM SMMU does not implement such caching mode and requires to use
physical stage 1 for VFIO integration.
