Hi Paul,

The name 'need_iommu()' is a little confusing as it suggests a domain needs
to use the IOMMU but something might not be set up yet, when in fact it
represents a tri-state value (not a boolean as might be expected) where
-1 means 'IOMMU mappings being set up' and 1 means 'IOMMU mappings have
been fully set up'.
Two different meanings are also inferred from the macro it in various
places in the code:
- Some callers want to test whether a domain has IOMMU mappings at all
- Some callers want to test whether they need to synchronize the domain's
P2M and IOMMU mappings
This patch replaces the 'need_iommu' tri-state value with a defined
enumeration and adds a boolean flag 'need_sync' to separate these meanings,
and places both of these in struct domain_iommu, rather than directly in
struct domain.
This patch also creates two new boolean macros:
- 'has_iommu_pt()' evaluates to true if a domain has IOMMU mappings, even
if they are still under construction.
- 'need_iommu_pt_sync()' evaluates to true if a domain requires explicit
synchronization of the P2M and IOMMU mappings.
All callers of need_iommu() are then modified to use the macro appropriate
to what they are trying to test, except for the instance in
xen/drivers/passthrough/pci.c:assign_device() which has simply been
removed since it appears to be unnecessary.
NOTE: There are some callers of need_iommu() that strictly operate on
the hardware domain. In some of these case a more global flag is
used instead.
