Currently, for x86 platforms, Xen does not provide to the users any
configuration control over the IOMMU support and can only be built with
both AMD and Intel IOMMU drivers enabled.
However, there are use cases, e.g in safety-critical systems, that require
Xen to be able to be configured to exclude unused code. A smaller tailored
configuration would help Xen to meet faster certification requirements for
individual platforms.
Introduce two new Kconfig options, AMD_IOMMU and INTEL_VTD, to allow code
specific to each IOMMU technology to be separated and, when not required,
stripped. AMD_IOMMU enables IOMMU support for platforms that implement the
AMD I/O Virtualization Technology. INTEL_VTD enables IOMMU support for
platforms that implement the Intel Virtualization Technology for Directed I/O.
Since no functional change is intended regarding the default configuration
of an x86 system, both options depend on x86 and default to 'y'.
